However technically correct your choice for CET might be, it breaks tradition, and is in general something people here will consider a ``US-centric'' decision.
Actually, if anything, `MET' is the US-centric name, since it was chosen by an American, whereas `CET' was championed by a European.
Well I happen to disagree here. At least for Denmark MET is actually the abbreviation recommended by the ministry of the interior. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | phk@FreeBSD.ORG FreeBSD Core-team. http://www.freebsd.org/~phk | phk@login.dknet.dk Private mailbox. whois: [PHK] | phk@ref.tfs.com TRW Financial Systems, Inc.
