That's easily fixed by adding a timezone entry to your author-map
entry - CET, is it?  That will prevent reposurgeon from making any
attempt to deduce your timezone.

It would be interesting to know how reposurgeon got misled.  Most
likely it was by a Changelog entry.  Reposurgeon watches as these are
being processed to see if it can pin an email address to a single timezone
by looking up its TLD in the IANA database.

I don't know how that could land you in California, though. Maybe
I ought to be logging timezone deductions so we can trace them back.

Has anyone else seen wrong timezone attributions?
