Package: devscripts Version: 2.9.26 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Since dates written to changelogs are going to be read by people all over the world, IMHO it is better if these dates are in UTC to make it easier to figure out when it was uploaded in comparison to other events (such as the upload of a related package, etc).
