Renkai Ge commented on FLINK-4282:
----------------------------------
If there is no proper solution to this issue now,I want help solving it.Since
relations between timezone and offsets is complex,there is a lot of ways to
handle it(java.util.*,jodatime and java.time.* since Java 8),and people will
have their own choice,so I think it should not be a part of Flink. We just give
APIs to fill offsets in,and users chose their own way to get the offset.

> Currently, windows are always aligned to EPOCH, which basically means days
> are aligned with GMT. This is somewhat problematic for people living in
> different timezones.
> And offset parameter would allow to adapt the window assigner to the timezone.
