-Unlike mainline PHP, in uPHP "Linux timestamps" are based upon the Wattmon's local time, not UTC/GMT.
+Unlike mainline PHP, in uPHP "Linux Timestamps" are based upon the Wattmon's local time, not UTC/GMT.
-Technically, the Unix Epoch is defined as being January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT. But on the Wattmon, timestamps are relative to January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 //local timezone//.

 If the Wattmon clock and timezone are set to UTC+00 (GMT) then the uPHP timestamp //is// the same as mainline PHP, otherwise not.
-In uPHP on the Wattmon this simplification is referred to as a "Linux timestamp" but it should be noted that it may not be exactly the same, depending on the Wattmon's timezone settings.
