Err, was that quoting business aimed @ me or Adam?
PS. I'll admit that my idea has some problems with it, but I was just railing @ the fact that someone who is not very likely to live in the same zone as Redmond would have to correct ROS/Windows every time they installed. I admit that my method might result in being some zones off, but @least it's trying to be intelligent, instead of just assuming that everyone lives in GMT -8.
I am pretty sure that was aimed at me, my bad, sorry about that Alex. I didn't realize that it was you, forgot that you are a developer, and yes, I finished the math module, well, sort of...{read -> I'll do it tonight ;)} As for the timezone, I agree with you K McI that it should intelligently pick the timezone, but I think it is just too difficult, especially with very metropolitain nations such as Canada. I suggest one of two things: 1) Stick with GMT as a default 2) Pick some neutral default considered the "home" of ROS, I believe Windows defaults to GMT -8 because of the location of Microsoft HQ {Redmond, Washington}
