[Opensim-users] Correcting Metaverse Time

[Robert Klein]

To restate the original issue/concern, "Currently OpenSim is relying on SLT
as a common starting point for time. The rest of the RL world uses UTC.
Should we break SL tradition and move towards using UTC (MTC) as the
standard reference and what do we do about the viewer?" I believe everyone
is in agreement that using UTC is the best way to go. What is the next step?

Actually most project/business/education oriented people coming from SL will
probably be relieved to see us using UTC.

Well, maybe I am having trouble getting it, Stefan.

A few days ago, there were several multi-hour, heated discussions about how
the timezones of different servers would make events and scripts
malfunction.

Personally, I have been using UTC since the 1970's and GMT before that in
communicating around this rock, so I dont get the flap and just use UTC/GMT,
but it seems an important subject to others.
