Description

Since bug #4551 was closed WONTFIX the inability to handle daylight-savings time should be documented in the TimeZone RDoc along with the suggestion to switch to tzinfo_timezone as described in #4551.

  • keywords set to postgresql postgres.

  • priority changed from normal to highest.
  • milestone set to 1.2.

I think this is important. also with apps like Mephisto hacking their own TimeZone fixes into the application I think that the WONTFIX policy should be re-examined. Keeping the system lean as possible with dependencies is not the same as ignoring a glarind defect.
