Re: New clock applet for 2.22

[Alex Jones <alex weej com>]

Maybe an "interesting timezones" feature/setting would be useful in GNOME, so that other apps can join in the fun of multi-timezone awareness, with just one central place to configure it.

Or do you think such a feature should only pertain to a clock? Anyone have any more use cases?
