I have an app that needs to track a local time and the different from UTC. If I do this:
DateAndTime localTimeZone: (TimeZone offset: -5 hours name: 'EST5EDT' abbreviation: 'EST5EDT').
Then it is easy for me to make conversions to UTC using #asUTC. The problem is this offset needs to be adjusted twice a year. I've looked at the time zone plugin but it seems pretty heavyweight for something that is /almost/ workable in the image. Does anyone have a solution for this?
I'm using Squeak3.9.1 if it makes a difference.
