I'm in CET (Central European), that GMT+2 in DST, and GMT+1 otherwise.

As for Sean: Sean and me had agreed that we won't do RPMs anymore for
2.5.x. Maybe we need to reconsider now, but my view is that binary RPMs
typically fit a very specific OS release only (e.g. some version of
Redhat); all the other RPM-using distributions (SuSE etc) couldn't use
it. So compared to the value, the effort is too big.

Martin
