### Rationale for this change `zoneinfo` is available starting with Python 3.9, so we can now assume that it is available, and so we can switch from by default returning `pytz` timezones to return `zoneinfo` timezones (or `datetime.timezone` for fixed offsets). Only keeping pytz as fallback for strings that are not supported by `zoneinfo` but were supported by `pytz`. Later, we should maybe deprecate that fallback. ### What changes are included in this PR? ### Are these changes tested? ### Are there any user-facing changes? **This PR includes breaking changes to public APIs.** It is a different object that we return (different class), which a different API, so for people relying on that, this is a breaking change. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
