[go-nuts] Give the zero time value a location, and it won't survive a roundtrip to JSON?
Hi all, Time is complicated. Today I found myself in a rabbit hole. For some unrelated reason, I got a time value in a non-UTC location that's otherwise zero (IsZero=true). This value doesn't seem to survive a roundtrip to JSON. See this playground for a minimal reproduction: https://play.golang.org/p/QdglfKYkstS Is this expected, a bug, or an undefined behaviour? I checked RFC 3339, which time uses as the JSON serialization format, and it seems to support AD to AD, but I have to admit I know little about time.

[go-nuts] Re: Give the zero time value a location, and it won't survive a roundtrip to JSON?
Is this because the 2-second offset of LMT gets lost in RFC 3339 representation?
