[Mono-list] Problems with DateTime (maybe a bug)

[Kornél Pál]

Hi,

"1984-08-08T10:35:15.9147790-02:00" contains time zone as well so 
"07/08/1984" can be the same date in a different time zone. You should have 
a deeper look at the issue because there is a database involved as well so 
it's quite difficult to tract the problem without access to the database. 
You should first reproduce the date<->string conversion without the database 
first so you can get to know where the problem is.
