UTC = Coordinated Universal Time which is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) or Zulu Time.
JAR = Java Archive (or something like that) which is similar to a zip file for Java and typically holds stuff like class files.

  Sounds fair, even though I only really understood about 3 out 5 (60%) of the
  acronyms in that message. :-)

  But, I would be most willing to help track down more holiday definitions.

  > Thanks, that's very much what I'm looking for.  Are you willing to share?

  don't i always?

  need to work thru some bugs with the ibm folks (these are in their queue),
  get a handle on the UTC issue (it assumes everything's UTC but that behavior
  might change as most civilized folks don't live in that timezone ;-) & wait
  for icu4j 2.8 to be released. then there's the .JAR size issue, for all the
  i18n goodness you get, it needs 2.xx mb of .JAR. need to split off the JARs
  into related but more bite-sized chunks for those folks only wanting some
  bits.

  i will ask that you track down some official holiday data for a few locales
  though.
