In the USA for 2007, the US Energy Policy Act of 2005 moves Daylight Savings Time (DST) observances from the second Sunday in March until the first Sunday in November.
Does anyone ( Neils? ;) ) know if Umbraco needs any patching/config changes to handle this change?
Thank you

Time/Date handling in umbraco is handled by .NET culture settings, which again relies on windows. The short answer is that umbraco will not crash and when the time on the server gets changed umbraco will follow. However this could mean that there could be some time confusion on content items created within the hour affected by daylight changes - but this could easily be corrected manually (or automatically in sql if you have loads of data affected in that hour, which is... ehm... probably not likely).
So, we're no where near a Y2K :)
Cheers,
Niels...
Jeeeez, did I really start this :-)
