Why would it be so complicated to store timestamps in UTC? I've already shown in my previous comment that date fields already have a 'Z' tacked onto them. Is that used? If not, how could it be used? Can Calc convert timestamps from the local timezone into UTC on save, and form UTC into the local timezone on load? Both these conversions should be provided by the OS or the runtime, so there should be no reason to mess with timezones in Calc code. <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19431234/converting-between-java-time-localdatetime-and-java-util-date">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19431234/converting-between-java-time-localdatetime-and-java-util-date</a></pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
