[Managing] Date and time improvements

Postby ale » Sat Jun 13, 2009 3:27 pm

These are suggestions/ideas for Alex to review more than feature requests, I don't personally need these but maybe they're useful for CN future

1. At the moment CN saves creation date and time of a note. As an enhancement we might also save date and time of last modification.

2. It seems to me that CN adds a timestamp to a note using the local time of a machine. I was wondering if it would be better to use an UTC timestamp and then translate it to a local time while viewing notes adding the right offset from time zone and daylight savings settings.
