DST and the Developer - Move Along There is Nothing to See

By now I am sure you have heard of the proposed change to Daylight Savings Time. InfoWorld has a great article laying out the concerns.

From my perspective this is not really a big deal. This will affect embedded systems (i.e. your VCR) more than our web and desktop applications. As long as you haven't been using DST as a major event to drive data, fear not and move along.... there is nothing to see here.
