Downer and meta: I actually think that Downer hasn\'t done a bad job, especially compared with how hopeless he used to be in the treasury. But Rudd can definitely do a lot better in pushing Australian foreign policy into the 21st century rather than maintaining the status quo.
I have no idea what\'s going on with the time. A bit of brief experimentation:
I posted this diary at 20:33 WAST Sep 28.
When I select WAST, it shows up as 11:33 Sep 29.
When I select EAST, it shows up as 14:33 Sep 29.
When I select GMT or UTC, it shows up as 04:33 Sep 29.
It seems all wrong. I think scoop needs to know what timezone it\'s in - are scoop and the server itself set consistently?
From the times above, it seems that the WAST timezone is incorrect. It should be two hours behind EAST and eight ahead of GMT, instead it\'s -3 and +7 respectively. K5 used to have a problem with WAST being out by an hour, so maybe it\'s a scoop thing. I complained a few times but nobody was listening.
