Review Board and JIRA Updating Items with Timestamps in the Future

I just noticed that the timestamps used in Review Board and JIRA seems to
be in the future.

Is anyone else observing this?

If so, we might need to create and infrastructure ticket to report it.

Thank you very much Jarek for the clarification.

Thank explains a lot.

I was a bit thrown off when I observed that.

Hi Israel,
thank you very much for your cleaning effort. The times are not in the "random" future, they are just displayed in different timezone. As Apache Software Foundation have committers across entire planet there is no single timezone that would work for everyone.  As a result, ASF is using UTC on the systems to have one standard timezone across all of them. You can set your timezone in the JIRA configuration and by doing that you will see all times converted to your local timezone. Sadly as far as I know, then Review board do not have such option.
