But it sounds like there are multiple consumers of the file format you are producing, so before introducing breaking changes you should consider whether these existing parsers based on the old format would produce a correct result? That is, if they interpret the data as a local time, but the time is actually in UTC, then it doesn't matter if you change the format - they would be broken anyway. However, if they do produce correct results and you cannot simply update them, then introducing a new field might be a better solution.As for naming, maybe STARTUTC / ENDUTC might work.</blockquote>
