Description Jason Connor 2011-06-23 18:48:14 UTC 
The problem is that when we convert to/from iso8601 datetime we lose timezone information in that we can go from a local timezone (that takes into account daylight saving's time) to a fixed offset, which does not.

First step in overcoming this is to make sure that all date/time information stored in the database is stored in the utc timezone.
Comment 2 Jay Dobies 2011-07-13 19:56:25 UTC 
Removing this from the RHUI blockers. This only affects history queries and not the task subsystem. The RHUI Manager only queries against the task subsystem so we're fine.
