I am in the process of building a temporal expression library that must be properly globalized and therefore work in all available Time Zones.

Hi, Has anyone used the grails timeZoneSelect tag on GAE/J ? I've come across the error below on app engine.

Considering that there is no NSTime in Cocoa-Touch (Objective-C on iPhone), and given two times as NSStrings and a timezone as an NSString, how can you calculate whether or not the current LOCAL time is between these two times. Keep in mind that the date in the time strings do NOT matter, and are filled with dummy dates. For example: ...
My web app stores all timestamps in UTC without time zones. I have a shell/psql script that returns a list of recent logins, and I want that script to display login times in the server's local time zone (which may vary depending on where the server is and with daylight savings). To get an interval representing the difference between my...
