  • Queensland Timezone

    From Apam@VERT/NOCTURN to All on Tue Jul 16 16:41:51 2019
    Hi

    I'm not sure if this is an issue or not, but when I was setting up synchronet there was no Queensland (or brisbane) option for Timezone. We're +10:00 like Sydney and Melbourne, but we don't have daylight savings.

    I just set up my BBS as other and put +10:00 so I think it's a non issue, but I thought I'd mention it.

    Setting it to "Australian Eastern" AEST and disabling Auto-DST should do the trick. I see that there's currently a bug in SCFG where it doesn't ask if you want Auto-DST enabled (or not) when using AEST or ACST zones. I'll fix that.

    Nice job on the custom avatar, btw. More people should do that! :-)
