Clock should provide notification of time changes like daylight savings time

[Brian Burger]

We switched to Daylight Savings time last night; when I started my computer this afternoon I noticed that the clock had switched to DST as well - but it would be nice if there was a small notification dropdown that reminded the user of the switch to/from DST and confirmed that the system time was still right.

That little distro from Redmond does this, and when I was still using Billware it was a useful reminder to switch the *rest* of the clocks in the house.

Nice idea, I've forwarded the suggestion upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337090

for people have their clock set to local time, but do not use windows (or raely reboot to windows), this would remind them to set the time right.

see Bug #63247

Good idea.

confirming :) this would make a great addition!
