All, I need some advice. We are in a process to buy equipments for AccessGrid Node for the ACCESS center at Stennis Space Center, MS. We have spec. of the headware equipments. Two of the items, wireless audio receiver and transmitter have been discontinued by the manufacturer, Vega. Can anybody recommend me another wireless audio receiver and transmitter? I'm very new in AccessGrid Node and have not the seen a real node or its performance before ( it's hard to imagine what exactly I need). Thank you, Supreeya Miller Scientific Visualization Researcher The Center of Higher Learning Building 1103 Stennis Space Center, MS 39529 Phone : 228-688-2969 Fax : 228-688-7454 E-mail : supreeya.miller(a)usm.edu

Another great site for seeing the various timezones is http://www.time.gov/ While they do provide a UTC reference, non-American timezones are not available, not terribly good for the global AGN sites. -bob At 8:44 PM -0600 3/20/01, Mary Fritsch wrote: >Drag.

I had envisioned the time conversion working exactly as you say here. Basically, I'll store all times in the database as UTC times, and convert to and from UTC based on user information that will be gathered during a first-time registration process. On the same note, if anyone has any suggestions for functionality that they would like to see in the scheduling application, please let me know. -Shawn Davis

I agree that time zones can be confusing and at the very least every time should have a zone listed! ;-) I don't mind converting to UTC but it would be nice to have a reservation and schedule viewing page that would automatically show you both UTC and your local current time zone (adapting to each viewer either automatically or via a cookie with the local zone that they'd set up the first time or whatever). ;-) Marty
