So you don't have to select your own timezone
the DTS settings are save also, even the date when it changes...
I wasn't talking about the users own timezone, but about the GUI/timezone you set for your contacts. It would be very handy and nice looking if it was like in Windows I think.

I can save those settings for each contact, and then it'll change them automaticaly, it wouldn't be a big obstacle...
that's what I meant, it is not always the third sunday of october (for example), it can be the second too or the day before. Heck, in some cases the DST isn't even activated each year (sounds strange, but it is :/). DST is reviewed each year by the countries and is able to change each year (whatever the politics decide). Of course in most countries the scheme will not change, but there are many countries where it does. Even in the US, they recently changed it (in 2005 I thought), and in 2007 it will be different than how it is now. But it is possible it will change back to the scheme used in 2005. In Chile the DST was delayed in 1987 and in 1990. In Australia the DST is very erratic.
