[Orgmode] Worldcup + time zone question
Hi All, I made a little org-mode schedule for the Football World Cup in South-Africa (attached); it may be useful for some. Anyway, my question: the times are the local times in South Africa -- is there some way to have the times shown in my org-agenda automatically corrected for my local time zone?

Re: [Orgmode] Worldcup + time zone question
Dirk, Great schedule! I am really interested, in the same way, if it is possible to adjust timezones to Brazil as well. If it is not, I will adjust by hand your table. Daniel 2010/6/7 Dirk-Jan C.

Re: [Orgmode] Worldcup + time zone question
Dirk, My understanding is that time zones aren't currently supported in org, or well supported in emacs in general. I've looked a few times at allowing data entry from another TZ to just be converted to localtime, and haven't had a good answer yet. Thanks. On Mon, Jun 07, 2010 at 10:48:14PM +0300, Dirk-Jan C.
