Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ org-clock-in in org-clock.el calculates org-clock-total-time via calling (org-clock-sum-current-item (org-clock-get-sum-start)). However, org-clock-get-sum-start returns the time in UTC, which is not considered by org-clock-sum-current-time. My time zone if UTC+8 and org-clock-mode-line-total is 'today. Hence org-clock-total-time is gives total time starting from 8am today (which is midnight in UTC) instead of midnight in UTC+8.
