Subject: ChangeLog entry dates...
Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2007 23:07:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070227230716.GQ13153@adacore.com> (raw)

Hello,

I have a question/suggestion regarding the date that should be used in
a ChangeLog entry, like so:

    2007-02-27  Joel Brobecker  <brobecker@adacore.com>

I suggest we try to use the UTC date at the time the change was
checked in.

With contributors such as Nick that leave at UTC+something in
New Zealand (according to email address), and folks like myself
that leave on the West Coast of North America, which is UTC-lots,
it's very easy to have entries that is one day ahead of me, thus
breaking the date ordering...
