** Description changed:

  reported by Renato in irc.
  
- Subject more-or-less says it all. When the timezone changes, indicator-
- datetime needs to update its appointments/alarms so that 'floating'
- alarms (eg, a wakeup alarm for 6am regardless of what timezone you're
- in) adjust and update their hw wakeup time.
+ Alarms created in ubuntu-clock-app are "floating", which means that if
+ you set a 6am alarm, it should go off at 6am no matter what timezone
+ you're in.
+ 
+ Indicator-datetime currently doesn't update its alarm list as a result
+ of timezone changes, which could be a problem if you've got an early
+ appointment...
