specifier %z gives the time zone name instead of the time zone offset as stated
in the documentation.
eg
>>> strftime("%z")

Mike Owens added the comment:
Expected output should be -0700.
I checked Python 3.3.1 and 2.7.4 on Linux and the output is as expected.

there were a foot note in the table for %z that would save some time for

Mike Owens added the comment:
The datetime.strftime function produces no output for %z or %Z. Very irritating.
