[Spacewalk-list] Incorrect timezone in new 2.1 date / time picker.

[Ron Helzer]

There's only one other GMT-0500 timezone choice available (Indiana), where
they don't observe DST... That, in conjunction with the fact that there
were no DST issues pre-2.1, would suggest to me that the GMT-0500 (Eastern)
setting should account for EDT/EST change.

Are you suggesting I'm supposed to change the preference twice a year to
manually account for DST?
