This is exactly what I think may be causing an issue, requiring a patch...

"Actually, using time zone names rather than offsets has additional benefit: if you use them, Oracle will employ its built-in time zone dictionary and will take into account any daylight savings that may be in effect in particular time zone at particular date and correct the offset accordingly"

So, if the real definitions change (as per extending the period for daylight saving time), then we will need to change the dictionary definition, right ? Received on Fri Apr 07 2006 - 14:56:40 CDT
