Hi All, I am facing some strange problem in pytz.
The timezone "Asia/Calcutta" is actually IST, which is GMT + 5:30. But while using pytz, it is being recognized as HMT (GMT + 5:53). While I digged into the oslan database, I see the following: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] Zone Asia/Calcutta 5:53:28 - LMT 1880 # Kolkata 5:53:20 - HMT 1941 Oct # Howrah Mean Time? 6:30 - BURT 1942 May 15 # Burma Time 5:30 - IST 1942 Sep 5:30 1:00 IST 1945 Oct 15 5:30 - IST A similar problem is also posted at http://groups.google.co.in/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/55496e85797ac890 without any responnses. Unable to know how to proceed. Needing help. Tried posting in launchpad and mailed to Stuart, but yet to get any response. thanks Sanjay -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
