Paul,

As I understand it, the NTP protocol is unconcerned with Daylight Saving
Time. DST is a local consideration, and each software application must
provide for it.

Hi Jay,
=20
I was curious in reviewing this spec about what happens if the customer
is using an external NTP server? Does the time on the SSC override the
NTP servers time? Or do I not understand how this works?

Erik, please assign this area to someone to write the test cases, should
test going forward and going backward.=20

Thanks,

Hi Erik, Vikas, Sandrine, Ken and Paul,

It was my error in failing to include you on the email discussing this.
For your reference, it's below. And I apologize.

Hello Carl,

Your customer, Motorola, raised the question of Daylight Saving Time in
2007 a few weeks ago. The issue is that the U.S. Congress changed the
date for commencing DST beginning in 2007, and software needs to be
cognizant.

It turns out that our software needed only slight modification to
account for this, and the revision will ship in our Release 2.2,
approximately January 15. The release will be backward compatible with
existing releases.

We did not produce a marketing-oriented document, but in case you are
interested, I've attached our internal functional spec from Engineering.
If you look at it, you will see that the update for this was rather
minor, but nonetheless worthwhile, so thanks for being the first to
alert us.

If you have questions or comments, please let me know.

jay
