Forum shows wrong time/time zone

Per Westermark

The times displayed in the thread list is totally wrong.

The thread:
http://www.keil.com/forum/17623/

has a post from me with time stamp:
27-Sep-2010 09:29 GMT

but in the thread list, the time is instead presented as:
09/27/10 16:29 GMT

By showing 7 hours more than in the time in the post, the thread list shows times way into the future.

    Problem still there.

    If I were to venture a guess, this is a date-related DST problem. Some states may have already switched from DST to plain timezone this past sunday (last of September), others have 5 more weeks of "summer" to go.

    The problem with the thread list timestamps may not be related to Singapore or similar ... I'd sooner suspect some server in the USA inadvertantly having been configured to "hardware real-time clock holds GMT" and then rebooted, whereas the actual RTC held local time. Eh voila! an 8-hour jump forward for GMT-8 timezones. PST, anyone?
