This announcement is long overdue. The win32all package (Python for Windows Extensions, https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/), from Mark Hammond, now includes a win32timezone module which implements time zones for win32 users (WinNT and later) utilizing the timezone information found in the Windows registry.
More information may be found in the documentation. Simply download and install the latest python for windows extensions. Get the latest help by running the following: >>> import win32timezone >>> help( win32timezone ) Regards, Jason R.
