[x3d-public] Server Restore

[Webmaster]

John,

As Don stated, not possible. The server runs in the same timezone as the 
Web3D Consortium HQ address (Pacific Time, currently PDT -- GMT-0700). 
The website can handle timezone differences because it is doing 
translations from the user's timezone to/from GMT, but this takes 
software to provide an interface. Mailman (and Pipermail) are file-based 
systems that provide web access to existing files (mail messages). There 
is no translation done on the contents (except handling attachments).
