Hi, This is a confusing issue, but the main point here is that the server should NOT necessarily serve the date-time values as GMT. It should serve them in the as they should be presented by the client. Note that the data source library (used to create the DateTimeValues in the server) doesn't accept timezone. The data is, in a way, "timezone-less", and it will presented on the client in the same way it's created on the server. Think of it that way: the 'date' type has no timezone, and that's reasonable. The 'timeofday' type also has no timezone, and that's also reasonable. The 'datetime' type is just a concatenation of 'date' and 'timeofday'.
Alternatively, you can use the DateFormatter<http://code.google.com/apis/visualization/documentation/reference.html#dateformatter> on the client to adjust the date/time from the known "server" timezone and the client timezone.
