DST changes in 2007

Although I think it's unlikely that the Daylight Savings Time changeover coming in 2007 will yield the 3-ring circus we enjoyed leading up to Y2K, I assume there will still be some gotchas. DST is basically just a schedule for when you adjust your offset from GMT, but I'm sure I don't know about

Since I suggested it I should probably explain why I suggested this change. It's very simple... I perfer that mailing lists have the name of the list in the subject. That's all. I could adjust my mail client or maybe create a .procmailrc entry to :0: this into a different mbox, but I don't...
