What should 'tomorrow' be?
As you might know, I'm reimplementing PHP's date/time routines. At the moment PHP doesn't handle this well I think. But what should PHP's strtotime() do with "tomorrow". Always 24 hours which will make "2005-10-29 02:00am tomorrow" show "2005-10-30 01:00am" because time changes back to non-DST that day... but when it should always exactly a day "2005-04-02 02:30am tomorrow" does not exist although "2005-10-29 02:00am tomorrow" will then correctly show "2005-10-30 02:00am"... what is your opinion on this?

I guess I'm predudiced since I live in a country that doesnt have DST ;)
But the templation would be to ignore DST, in everything, except: $date->toStringLocale('%Y %d %h'); $date->parseWithLocale('12/....');
But I suspect it's not a simple as that...
Personally, I assume that when you ask for 'tomorrow,' what you'll get back is a date, not date-time. But maybe I'm the only one.
I think that it should return tomorrows date at midnight rather than saying date + 24 hours. If I remember correctly to my perl days Date::Manip worked that way which was quite useful.
I agree with Jacques - if yo always get a date at midnight, the results are much more predictable (an thus easier to work with). It also goes in the direction that Ryan mentioned about only getting back a date.
Hi Derick!
I guess this case is pretty rare (it's just 2 hours per year, that get lost), therefore, I'd suggest to move to 3:00 when the time between 2 and 3 does not exist.
Another possibility would be to make it configurable how to deal with the DST switch times (eg. "move to next hour", "move to last hour", "error",...).

I think this was my favourite photo of the set that I took. It's not at maximum coverage, but it does have a sun spot group (4508) just on the cusp of the terminator.

No totality here in London, but still had a great evening out in the local park and taking some snaps.
I did have a nice Solar Filter that I made for my lens, and had many conversations with people from different backgrounds. Kids loves to look through my filter after I was done (ran out of battery power).

Is there somebody who runs PHP on native windows (with Xdebug) and can run a simple script for me?
It must be in a file (`test.php`):
```
<?php
echo microtime(true), "\n";
xdebug_connect_to_client();
echo microtime(true), "\n";
```And run like:
php -dxdebug.log_level=11 -dxdebug.log=c:\temp\xdebug-i.log -dxdebug.client_host=localhost -dxdebug.client_port=9111 -dxdebug.mode=debug c:\temp\test.php
With the port 9111 not open.
Would love to see the output and log file (in a DM).
