Description (last modified by eevee) (diff)
Users should have an option to specify a time zone. Preferably it will be magically divined by JavaScript? and just need to be confirmed. Also keep in mind that even I can't remember how far I'm off of GMT, so a dropdown of numbers from -12 to 12 is about the worst UI for anything ever.
Then change the time formatter to use the current user's time zone, or possibly GMT (?) for Anonymous.
Also figure out just how complex this time zone math should be; do we need to involve DateTime? here, or can I be lazy and just add multiples of 30 minutes where necessary? DateTime? is known to be a bit on the slow side, but DST is a stupid pain in the ass now.
Also consider putting current time (according to user's timezone) and server time in the footer or something.
