Hmmm, I'm starting to wonder if my postings are getting anywhere.
I haven't seen any responses to anything in a week or so...
I posted a while back asking if anyone had any comments on using
datelines of the format:
Date: Thu, Feb 7 1991 08:38:44 -0800 (PST)
i.e. giving the numerical timezone as recommended by RFC1123, but
having the (possibly ambiguous) acronym as a comment. Makes sense
to me...any comments?
On a similar tangent, I just came across some mail that had the following
date line:
Date: Japan: Thu Feb 7 22:27:18 JST 1991, Europe: Thu Feb 7 13:27:19 GMT 1991
E.USA: Thu Feb 7 08:27:19 EST 1991, W.USA: Thu Feb 7 05:27:18 PST 1991
Now, that doesn't comply with any standards I know about, but I figured
I'd ask around before firing off an indignant message to the postmaster
at this site... :-)
Thanks,
