Various countries change in and out of daylight saving time on different dates. For instance, almost all of Europe now changes on the last Sunday of March and back again on the last Sunday of October. Chema: the UK and the rest of the EU have synched their DST switches several years ago. If you want to get a good idea of when various countries or regions switch to DST, if they do so at all, and what time differences they use, I suggest having a look at the excellent 'timepiece' for your Windows-PC called 'World Time' available free from www.pawprint.net. This program allows you to put a customizable bar of clocks from around the world on your screen, sync your PC to NTP or datetime sources and has an extensive database of world cities, their locations (longitude/latitude) and their DST times to go with it. I use this to keep track of the time of the people I'm chatting with when I'm on IRC. -- Maurice ICQ: 15724776 WWW: http://www.kiap.org/ Thawte Web of Trust Notary, see http://www.thawte.com/ +--+ | Schrijf je in voor / Register for EuroBiCon One! | | 22-24 June 2001 Rotterdam, The Netherlands | | Website: http://www.intbiconf.org/ | +--+ -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
