The issue is that USE_TZ = True makes local time rendered in the html templates, essentially "personalizing" the pages per timezone. This makes it harder to cache template fragments.
Local time can be rendered by Javascript based on the UTC timestamps as we have now or a reference time zone. If there is a way to make timestamp display in Askbot independent on the USE_TZ setting and allow the integrators make their own choice of that setting - it might be worth getting that done.
