There was a thread circulating early regarding support for timezones and recurrence in the context of sharing for 0.6. Brian Moseley asked....

"one question: what level of support will we have for sharing timezones and recurring items in 0.6? section 4.2 of the caldav draft talks about how to store these things. also, if we're going to do any real sort of timezone support, i will have to consider implementing a timezone collection in cosmo as per sections 3.3 and 9.3."
Most of my experience has been with ICU. The timezone.h header has a TimeZone C++ class, and this has a static method called createEnumeration which returns a StringEnumeration. This can be used to generate all of the time zone names that ICU "knows" about.
The same basic support exists in Java, via ICU.
