Incidentally, one of the problems with Unix timezones is exemplified by IST. IST can stand for Israel Standard Time, Indian Standard Time, Iran Standard Time, and my personal favorite, Irish Summer Time. I've read somewhere that on at least one old Unix system (I can't remember what or when), it was interpreted as that last one. I can hardly blame it though... who wouldn't want to spend their time in Ireland in the summer, given the chance? ;-) Can you tell I've had this problem before?
