Description Mary Holstege 2006-01-20 21:03:00 UTC
The timeOnTimeline function doesn't behave correctly for date/time datatypes 
having forced-absent properties.

Specifically, what should happen is that the first six values (always stored 
normalized to Z) should be denormalized to their local values (previously called 
"raw" values), then the default values applied to the absent ones, and finally 
the result renormalized to Z and the calculation completed. Mea culpa.

N.B.: This may also be a problem with some other date/time functions; I'll check 
at some point.
