-----------------------------------
I'm not in a situation where I can test this now (not on that project with Pig
installed), but I read the patch and it seems good as also now the unit test
handles the case I had described. Thanks.

-----------------------------------------
[~szita],
Can you review this one? You would be more familiar with the different forms
of specifying the timezone after PIG-4748.
of Daylight Saving Time with location based timezones
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
handling of the timezone offset is based on whether the timezone is currently in
daylight saving and not based on whether the timestamp is in daylight saving
time or not.
HH:mm:ss.SSSZ', 'Europe/Berlin') AS Timestamp;
noted in the documentation.
