I'd be careful using `DateTime` - it doesn't understand the timezone inherently.
Try using the new (to 4.0) `DateTimeOffset` which does. It picks up its TZ info from the repository so I suspect that it is going to be as good as the Olson DB. I don't know where MS gets their updates from, but I'm sure it's pretty much up-to-date. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Al Gonzalez Sent: Monday, 29 August 2011 07:44 To: ozDotNet Subject: Re: timezone converasion and olson database Is this what you are trying to do?
