Launching latest NG version, a nice poll asked me what I'd like to see.

I'd like to see average depth and average heartbeat, plus a local time zone
correction.

Now in Italy we are in UTC+2 (UTC+1+daylight saving time) and Subsurface
gets an error of +1 hour on my Windows 10 with italian regional settings.
Scubapro G2 is set as UTC (+2 now), to get correct time when travelling
around the world.

Average depth is already there, it shows up as a "average until this
point" line in the graph if you have it enabled (because some tech
divers find that useful).

Average heartbeat somebody would have to just implement. Nobody has
asked for it.

Local time zone you need to either

- fix your computer use to use local time when diving (that's what
everybody else does, and most dive computers don't support anything
*but* that)

- edit the time by hand after the download.

We've discussed having a per-trip timezeone setting, but nobody really
wants the confusion or room for error.
