DataConverter Initializazion
Before opening a Issue I would like to ask if someone could explain this.
DateTimeConverter has a fieled called TIMEZONE_DEFAULT which is used
in date conversion if no timezone is provided.
It would be natural for me to initialize it with
TimeZone.getDefault(); instead it is initialized with GMT. As a result
many Date Objects instantiated from ORM / DB Data which has 00:00 as
time are CONVERTED from the original timezone to GMT timezone. So a
day before (in my CEST case ;-) )
if TIMEZONE_DEFAULT will be equal to TimeZone.getDefault() all java
stuff in my application will use the same date/time conversion.
Thanks

do you mean this http://jcp.org/en/resources/tdk.
BTW also standard convertDateTime works well if you specify timezone
but is is very boring to introduce it every time you have to display a
date... also because you have locales manged by faces-config.

That's an old bug - and indeed, it has been introduced to comply with
the TCK. As an alternative, use s:convertDateTime which does exactly
what you're proposing.
