UTCDateAndTime is a UTC based implementation of class DateAndTime with one instance variable representing the magnitude of the point in time, and another representing local time zone offset.
I have updated the UTCDateAndTime package to make it loadable in the latest Squeak trunk and Spur.
Has anyone looked at this yet? Any interest?

A new Monticello repository is at http://www.squeaksource.com/UTCDateAndTime. The home page (with a new SAR) is at http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6197.
Starting with an updated trunk image, you can load UTCDateAndTime in two ways:
- Open the http://www.squeaksource.com/UTCDateAndTime repository, and load
the MCZ files in sequence beginning with Chronology-Core-dtl.3.
- In a preferences browser, in category 'updates' set the 'Update URL'
preference to 'http://www.squeaksource.com/UTCDateAndTime', and do world -> help... -> update code from server.
The main objective of UTCDateAndTime is to make DateAndTime conceptually simpler, but a happy side effect is that it is also significantly faster than the old implementation.
