historical time zones correct?

Hi

I think that the time zone GMT is not correct for news events before day light saving started in UK.
Or am missing something?

Example:
Select GMT time zone in the calendar and load up January 2006.
January 6 12:30pm USA Nonfarm Employment Change

One can look up the time definition for EST (New York) here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=179

In January the time offset to GMT is 5 hours.
Therefore 12:30 - 5 hours => 07:30 am.

And we know that NFP should be on 08:30 am.

Therefore I believe that the calendar should display: NFP January 6 is on 13:30 or 1:30 pm.

Please note that GMT is not the same as British Summer Time.

Otherwise thanks for the great calendar.

yes we are aware of this issue. basically, the events in the past will be off by one hour, because when we adjust for DST, it changes all events in the past as well. this can be a problem if you are using the calendar for historical information. we hope to have this issue fixed in the next version of the calendar, its a little tricky!

OK, thanks.
