Dave: Do you think it's OK to upload this module to CPAN? Or, should
it be part of DateTime::TimeZone module itself?

Given that it's created from the Olson data, I think it belongs as part of the core DT::TZ distro. Right now, whenever a new Olson tarball is released, I have an automated script to grab it and regen DT::TZ, so adding this should be pretty trivial. I'll take a look at the tarball and integrate it into the DT::TZ.

I'll probably change the package name so it's just part of DT::TZ, which already has a bunch of functions for getting lists of time zones.

Thanks for doing this.
