Hmm I see the problem.... do eBay actually change the duration of auctions as a result though?...


No, the only thing that changes is the display string on the listings - it will now display PST instead of PDT. Gixen converts this to the unix timestamp, which should be unaffected by the switch.

Would it not be better just to stick with a timezone that doesn't have these shifts on the gixen servers... like GMT for instance, but if you didn't like that one I would assume that there must be some more US centric timezone that does not have shifts?


GMT would do it too, but there is no US timezone that does not observe DST, so I prefer to keep the servers in the pacific zone.
