Subject: Re: [BUG] org-table: time difference delivers wrong results
Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2011 13:11:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201111231311.49282.DanielBausch@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <14198.1322043829@alphaville.dokosmarshall.org>

What may be a leading hint is that even

| -28799 | -08:00:01 |
#+TBLFM: $2=$1;T

does not deliver correct results.  It should deliver -07:59:59.
