It's probably better to consistently use the phrase "daylight saving time", as this is common usage (at least in the US) and it maps well to the tm_isdst variable of C. Logically DST can be observed in summer just as easily as in winter, and there's no logical requirement that it must advance the clock: after all, one can "save" daylight at the start of the day, and this is just as easy as "saving" it at the end.
However, please make it clear that no daylight is actually saved. -- Clive D.W. Feather | If you lie to the compiler, Email: clive@davros.org | it will get its revenge. Web: http://www.davros.org | - Henry Spencer Mobile: +44 7973 377646
