Now that Sun's tzupdater tool is out, it might be worthwhile to have a
Provider that is driven off the Jdk's timezone data.

* Don't have to update both Joda and Jdk's for a DST change. When the
deployment is on hundreds of dev and production servers it does make a
difference.
* It will be end of the nasty surprises if Joda and Jdk happen to be
on different versions of Olson data and conversion happen from one to
the other (for third party APIs including various specs) . We have
been bitten by this before.

Is anybody working on such a solution? If yes, have you faced any
issues with data compatibility.

Thanks, Vijay
