Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-637:
------------------------------------
You're right, I corrected the JIRA description -- this is correctly stated in
the patch https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/388
> [Format] Add time zone metadata to Timestamp type
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-637
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-637
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Format
> Reporter: Wes McKinney
> Assignee: Wes McKinney

> As a metadata-only convenience, it would be useful to have an optional Olson
> time zone name or absolute time offset (e.g. {{+07:30}}) in the {{Timestamp}}
> flatbuffers type:
> https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/format/Message.fbs#L94
> Null or length-0 string would indicate that the data is time zone naive, and
> shall not be considered to be localized.
