I find it unfortunate to still see a difference of behaviour for the Time class, depending on your runtime platform. I don't expect each library developer to actually care for that personally. I have been littl'bitten (caught it thanks to unit tests :-) a while back and was kind of disappointed to discover this ! Does anyone know if there are plans to make Time behaviour 'homogeneous' ?
