And I repeat what I said earlier: if Firebird uses an offset that is
too large then I can't use the standard features in Java for date/time

What is the Java range?
[-18:00, +18:00], see
https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/time/ZoneOffset.html
:
This article shows that Java keep seconds in ZoneOffset (not minutes as
Firebird currently).
18 hours limit is probably because two-byte word could keep just 18 full hour's:
65535 / (60*60) = 18
but sign should be kept somewhere else...
Should we reconsider current implementation ?
