I didn't find any question asked about 2007 DST readiness for Hobbit on the list. Should it be assumed it won't be problem at all? For one thing, the scheduled downtime and such would be specific to local time. Assume the underlying operating system has been patched and is ready to accomodate 2007 DST changes in North America.

All time recorded in Hobbit uses either the Unix timestamp - which is unaffected by DST changes - or the local time of some event which has occurred (for history logging).

So I cannot see that there should be any problems, assuming your OS has been updated to handle the new DST changes (usually, an update to your timezone definition files).
