Time travel…?

I am looking note "It's been _____ days without an INCIDENT." with Pumpa, and it looks a bit weird when Stephen responds to Jan before Jan has even send his comment…

Web client shows the comments in correct order but the time stamps are:

I just checked the time on datamost and it is correct. It is kept accurate via NTP with pool.ntp.org.

It could be related to my PC's time, which is probably a little wrong, but AFAIK, these timestamps are handled by the server unless specified, and Dianara certainly doesn't specify them =)


EDIT: Also, for the record, I sometimes get activities from certain users (usually certain @identi.ca users, like my @identi.ca self for instance) way later than they sould be received, but their timestamp is not wrong.

That's correct Pumpa sorts comments by the timestamps (as reported by the server). Maybe not the best method, but I remember that it fixed some problem with the replies being received in the wrong order.

“Probably there's a mismatch between @Stephen Sekula's server time and datamost.com's time.”

I forgot to post here. The problem was simple. NTP was not installed on the pump server. This is fixed.
