Adam,

Thanks for chiming in on the list.

We're more-or-less done with the timezone work -- we have an

API-compatible, timezone-enabled Date object. The code is
here if you 
haven't had a chance to take a look:

http://svn.osafoundation
.org/server/cosmo/trunk/cosmo/src/main/webapp/js/cosmo/datet
ime/ 


There are still some simplifications we'd like to do
particularly with 
how users pick timezones.

A TZ picker, and some sensible aliases for things like
"Pacific Time" 
would be much preferable to shoving all the exemplar cities
from each 
Olson file into a select box, which is what we're doing
now.

Yes, all this TZ-enabled Date stuff I originally did with
the intention 
of contributing it to Dojo -- and I would still very much
like to see it 
makes its way into DojoX.

However right now we are extremely focused on the upcoming
Preview 
release for Cosmo, so everybody's time is pretty limited.
We're all very 
much 'down in it' trying to get this stuff out the door.

I see there are some sensible packaging/test requirements
for extensions:

tributors/2007-May/007382.html

I'm hoping after our Preview release, I'll have some time to
make a 
proposal and begin packaging up the datetime stuff in a
DojoX-correct way.

Thanks again for following up on this.


Matthew
