[Building Sakai] Default Time Zone

[Beth Kirschner]

The displayed timezone comes from the JRE, and I'm guessing it doesn't  
understand the timezone string you/Windows provided. When I look at  
the Sakai user preferences, the timezone string for Hong Kong is "Asia/ 
Hong_Kong". So maybe try using that? Unfortunately I'm fairly windows  
illiterate, so I don't think I can be much help :-(
