RSS time zone offset not working

    I’ve set my time zone offset at -7, and everything works fine in my blog. However, in my RSS feed the local time is listed correctly but the offset from UTC is listed as 0.

    This means that if I post something at 1:34pm Mountain Time (my time zone), it is listed as such in my blog, but it is listed as 1:34pm UTC in my RSS feed.

    For example, in my RSS feed the pubdate for my latest entry is:
    Thu, 17 Feb 2005 13:34:40 +0000

    But it SHOULD be:
    Thu, 17 Feb 2005 13:34:40 -0007

    I’ve noticed the same thing, even on photomatt.net. You can hand-modify wp-rss2.php with the correct time zone setting and this will fix the problem. Use a pubDate offset of -0700 in the <item> section. Leave the pubDate offset alone in the <channel> section.
