Line 43:
: I would like to modify the task so you can initialize the date in the most natural way for the language, not via timestamp string parsing. (Date parsing is already presented in some of the data munging tasks.) For example, Java would use a Date or Calendar constructor. Hopefully, that would eliminate the timezone confusion and make the task more language inclusive. --[[User:IanOsgood|IanOsgood]] 14:51, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
::I don't understand why there's confusion. It doesn't say to print in any particular timezone and receiving a date stamp with a timezone is fairly common. The important part of the task is that the time is 12 hours later no matter what timezone it is. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 18:35, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
