tzinfo_timezone

Hi,

I tried installing the tzinfo_timezone plugin (and the tzinfo gem) in my rails 2.1 application. Now calls to date_select fail with: wrong number of arguments (3 for 2).

Removing the tzinfo_timezone plugin fixes everything, but then, of course, I'm left without DST support.

The first part of the application trace follows:

Could this be conflicting with the timezone stuff in rails 2.1 ?

Fred, you're everywhere, man! And, yes, you're spot on...

The problem is that there is no problem. Apparently Rails 2.1 already handles daylight savings properly (tzinfo gem is already bundled), and using tzinfo_timezone just screws things up: Mad Mimi Email Marketing.
