[jira] [Comment Edited] (DIRSTUDIO-845) "Friendly" time not displaying correctly

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-845?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13493637#comment-13493637 ]

Thanks for the response Pierre and I am located in Australia. The correct date/time is the one displayed in the Raw date string: 20121108144205Z and the incorrect time is the "friendly" time. It may be that the software we are using is compensating for the time difference already and when it puts the date into eDirectory, it puts it in correct but Apache is compensating again and adding another 11 hours even though it doesn't need to.

Another piece of software that also adds a date field to eDirectory puts the raw date/time as 11hours in the past so when Studio compensates for the local time it translates it to the real local time.

> We have a piece of photocapture software that takes a photo and adds it to our eDirectory tree along with the date the photo was taken. The format it uses to store the date in is the following: 20121108144205Z (yyyyddmmhhmm??Z). Apache takes this date and converts it to a more user friendly version but this date is off by +11 hours as below.
