+=================================================
+Breaking: #69930 - Remove option "serverTimeZone"
+=================================================
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The option $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['serverTimeZone'] which was introduced when there was no clean way to fetch the timezone option in the
+PHP4 environment, is removed. It was solved in PHP 5.1.0 which introduced ``date_default_timezone_get()``, and which is used by the TYPO3 Core
+by default.
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+Accessing the option will result in a PHP notice, as it is removed in TYPO3 CMS 7. Extensions making use of this option will result in an unexpected behaviour
+as possible calculations are wrong.
+
+
+Affected Installations
+======================
+
+Any TYPO3 installation which uses a third-party extensions that uses this option.
+
+
+Migration
+=========
+
+Use native timezone support by PHP directly. See ``date_default_timezone_get()`` for more information.
