Hi Phil,

Payload generated for 'meta time' matches depends on host's timezone and

the remaining two tests.

This means that the ruleset listing for the user changes when daylight
saving occurs, right? Just like it happened to our tests.

It shouldn't, as the date is converted to a timestamp that doesn't take DST into account (using timegm(3), which is Linux-specific).

The problem is that payloads are hard-coded in the tests.

Correct me if I'm missing something.


Thanks.
