The problem is - there is no GMT since GMT and UTC share the same time coordinate but not the same time.
At least every software/hardware/what ever that uses GMT instead of UTC is simply wrong.
GMT is a term back when UK was ruling the seven seas. Beside the facts:
UTC is derived from International Atomic Time (TAI), which is a coordinate time scale tracking notional proper time on the rotating surface of the Earth (the geoid). ...
Because of time dilation, a standard clock not on the geoid, or in rapid motion, will not maintain synchronicity with UTC. Therefore, telemetry from clocks with a known relation to the geoid is used to provide UTC when required, on locations such as those of spacecraft. ...
For most common and legal-trade purposes, the fractional second difference between UTC and UT (GMT) is inconsequentially small, so UTC is often called GMT (for instance, by the BBC).
So we learned UTC != GMT but often called GMT but still not GMT.
And for a software used all around the globe the termn GMT is simpy wrong.
You also won't say pi is 3,14.

Also why are the NA times given in PDT and PST when they could use PST?
For the EU based service it would be BST and GMT then?
