If the TZ detection works reliable, I don't see any reason to revert or

much better than the old one, it's really worth the upgrade for everyone
having to deal with different timezones.
Ok, maybe I missed it in the lengthy thread.
Contrary to what Derick may have thought from my response, I wasn't
trying to reopen the discussion, just to make sure it doesn't linger to
death.
I think that the only thing that is missing is that there is no way of
identifying the CLIENT time/daylight zone so we have to get users to
register their current location in order to use it on anything other
than a local server :(
Of cause the main problem is that if we use it then applications will be
totally tied to a version of PHP which has yet to actually be accepted
by ISP! I think THAT was the main reason for wanting a plug in module
that could be back ported?
