Summary for Lord Howe:
LHST Lord Howe Standard Time - save 0:00 LHDT Lord Howe Daylight saving Time - save 1:00 LHHDT Lord Howe Half Daylight saving Time - save 0:30
Why would we prefer LHHDT to "LHHT"?
Because xHDT and xHST are established practice in the database. For the double saving counterpart xDDT and xDST are used. If one wants to change that, then maybe for all xHDT and xHST. Answering in one word: consistency. -- Tobias Conradi Rheinsberger Str. 18 10115 Berlin Germany http://tobiasconradi.com
