I like the idea of expanding the info.txt .. time zone column
Fine by me. How is time zone expressed? Simply giving a numeric offset from GMT is problematic for places that observe daylight savings time - we'd have to update the file twice every year. Can we use something like PST8PDT??

I haven't checked this, but I wonder if you can't figure out the TZ of a machine if you just speak NICE to it? Try ncp tell <machine> sho exec for a machine in another TZ and see what the time in the header says?

On OZON you'll find a file called HECNETUTCMAP1.GIF
It puts nodes I had default decnet access to in UTC timezones.
The picture is considerably more weird than the earlier "excel art".
OZON will remain up for the night so no hurry.
BTW some of you will notice a file called DATE.DAT or DATE.TEST in the
default decnet directory.
I put it there to figure out the timestamp and thus compute the timezone.
Assuming the system time is set correctly.

When mapped on timezones the HECnet links are rather bizarre....
Some of you guys in the EU need to move to California...

It appears that bizarrely, there are only three direct links between
areas which are in the same timezone as each other. The majority of links
are across several timezones and there are no links at all between the areas
in the UTC+0 timezone.
Thanks for your work putting the map together Hans.

Peter Coghlan.
