Yes, but they use non-standard locations, and afaik, pytz does not support it. If a stdlib pytz would use this you would have to use different timezone names for Unix and Windows. I don't think that's a good idea. Also, the windows data contains only current timezone data, so for calendars stretching back in time, the Olsen database would be preferable as it keeps history. -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
