Description Robert Elves

When time zones are included as part of modification timestamps, if/when timezone changes due to daylight savings modification dates will be different causing false incoming.  To circumvent this connectors will need to provide unique modification timestamps in a specific date format i.e. yyymmdd hh:mm:ss that can be used by the frame work.

Also consider implications of passing determination of incoming to the connectors themselves.

Steffen, here is the bug that I thought pertains to our discussion yesterday pertaining to asking the connectors if a task has incoming etc.

The time stamp is now managed by the connector: bug 187450 comment #2 ,
