It only makes perfect sense to reuse the functionality and provide extra functions for converting times from any timezone to UTC and back in a useful and thread-safe manner. Many modern application require this functionality. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
