[Using Sakai] Timezone policy

[branden at uwindsor.ca]

Hi everyone,

It seems that time zones for users abroad are typically handled by stating 
that all due dates are in the school's local time zone. Have any 
institutions experienced issues with this type of policy in contrast to 
the fact that Sakai allows users to configure and see due dates in 
different time zones?

Are there any obvious reasons why an institution *wouldn't* want to 
completely disable time zone configuration for the user to adhere to this 
policy, other than they would be removing a convenience for the end-user 
who may be working internationally?

Thanks,
