I'm wondering how java.util.TimeZone gets updated, if at all, when governments change daylight savings time. They're talking about it right now in the US Congress http://news.yahoo.com/s/usatoday/20050722/pl_usatoday/daylightsavingextensiondrawsheatoversafetycost How does the system deal with the following timezone lookup? Is it in some sort of directory that gets updated with new versions of the jvm? TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles"); Right now I have an app that does everything in GMT, but I'll need to get exact time in local time zones eventually. Thanks.
