So, what are the best practices for working with an NSTimestamp
field, when all you really want is the date, not the time?
There isn't any that I am aware of. I usually "normalize" these to
noon in the setXXXDate() methods.
You can get some funny results normalising stuff if your server is in
a timezone that uses daylight saving and your report time frame
crosses the point at which the timezone switches. eg. normalising to
12 noon mid winter in the UK gives you 12:00 GMT, but in the summer
it gives you 11:00 GMT. I can't remember exactly where it goes wrong,
i just remember being bitten by it on more than one occasion...
