Groove

Important information for users who have Groove workspaces that include members located in Venezuela:

Venezuela is changing from SA Western Standard Time to Venezuela Standard Time. This change is a shift from GMT -4:00 to GMT -04:30. Like DST changes, this change may affect Groove. After this change, users should communicate to verify and adjust start times and end times of Groove Meetings tool meetings and Groove Calendar tool appointments. Also, users should be aware that time stamps may appear incorrectly in other Groove tools such as Discussion, Forms, Chat, and messaging. For more guidance on resolving or working around these problems, refer to the DST KB articles listed below for your specific version of Groove.

Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

Microsoft JVM version 3815

http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/java/default.mspx  Daylight saving time (DST) affects all builds of the Microsoft JVM up to and including VM version 3812. Microsoft has worked cooperatively with Sun Microsystems to provide a hotfix update to the MSJVM that will make it compatible with the latest changes to the observance of DST in the time zones for New Zealand, Eastern Europe (Minsk), GTB (applicable to Athens, Istanbul) and Eastern South America (Brasilia). MSJVM was shipped as part of a number of products that are currently in Extended Support. For those products, the update to the MSJVM for these DST changes is available through the Extended Support program. Premier Support customers should work with their local Microsoft account team to discuss options to obtain the hotfix. Non-Premier Support customers should go to http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifean22 and follow the steps listed under “Option 2: DST Update” to obtain the hotfix.
