Thank you for explanation. This is more than enough for us to make sure once again that we have chosen the right way to work with timestamps. We store all timestamps as long integer number of milliseconds since Unix epoch. No driver can break our data, whatsoever. The only bug we catch sometimes is that our applications fail to connect to the server at some locations. That is why we would appreciate if you implemented an option to specify TimeZone StartupParam.
