| Subject | pytz question: GMT vs. UTC |
| From | Skip Montanaro <skip@pobox.com> |

According ato the pytz doc (http://pytz.sourceforge.net/):
"‘UTC’ is Universal Time, also known as Greenwich Mean Time or GMT in
the United Kingdom."
If they are equal, why don't timezone objects created from those two
strings compare equal?
>>> pytz.timezone("UTC") == pytz.timezone("GMT")
False
(I'm revealing my complete ignorance of timezone manipulation by
asking this question.)
Thx,
Skip
