[Opensim-users] Timezone

[Gudule Lapointe]

Not totally exact, Vanish. My  tests proved that time info is somewhat send by the server:

	- On Singularity AND Second Life viewer (where timezone was supposed to be hard-coded), it shows PDT in my grid, and PST in OSGrid
		-> So, times is cleary sent by the server. For viewers listening to that info.
	- Imprudence has a setting to choose between PSD/PDT or GMT. If set to PST/PDT, i still get the same difference between OSGrid and mine
		-> fallback to same conclusion (and imprudence should probably replace "PST/PDT" by "in-world time" or something like that)
	- If I HG to another grid, my viewer keeps the time from my login grid
		-> time is set at login time, depending on login server settings
	- In the source code I see at some place that the daylight setting is evaluated.
		-> maybe only the use of DST can be set on server

Same question is still left: how?
	-> maybe just because osgrid auth server runs on a machine where DST is disabled?

And it raise a second question: who should adjust this settings, me, or OSGrid?
	No kidding: I just checked in Second Life, and time is PDT now, there.
	And I noticed several times that when we're in doubt, SL is often the reference.
