Thunderbird lighting calender and DST for Israel
Hi, What is the current work around to using calender with Thunderbird? I've followed the very long bug thread [1] , but its not clear at all of how to use it. My current work around is to change the TZ to cario, but I'm sure that wont work well on the days near DST changes. thanks, Ohad [1] - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504299 ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

Did you try the work around suggested in the bug? Try using http://www.dotanmazor.com/files/timezones.sqlite to replace your own DB.

Until then, you are just a joker who throws stones from afar. For the record, Shai Berger also did not like some of the decisions. He asked to be attend personally, got his wish, made his case, got focused responses, and was satisfied that it couldn't have been done better. It is possible that things could be done better, but uninformed criticism like yours shows little more than ignorance, and does little to get us there (assuming it's possible).
