Time property is not stored properly with respect to utc_offset values

[dantler]

Hi,

It seems like DataMapper and Ruby have two different ideas about how to store and retrieve Time objects. The following few lines show the issue. Pay particular attention to the offsets!

t
# => #<Time @value=2012-10-11 13:05:40 +0900>
Meeting.create(:begin => t)

m = Meeting.all(:begin => t)
m.query
# => #<DataMapper::Query ... @conditions=(begin = 2012-10-11 13:05:40 +0900)>
m.first
# => #<Meeting @id=2 @begin=2012-10-11 13:05:40 -0700 ...>

I have created a repository with the issue using Postmodern's bug report template, see: https://github.com/dantler/dm-bug-report . Please let me know if I can provide more assistance!

Thanks,
David

I updated this issue with a simpler problem description. Figure it deserves a bump.
