Component body

This module attempts to adjust all dates displayed to end-users in their current timezone without a user having to be authenticated with their user timezone preferences configured.

It does this by checking for RDF metadata in the DOM and running the associated date/time through the JavaScript Date object (which is aware of the user's current timezone), then rewriting the date according to the format specified for the date display.

There is a substantial list of caveats in the README. Please read them before you consider using this module.
