Daylight Saving Time Impact

Hello:

As you are aware Beginning in 2007, DST will start the second Sunday of
March and end on the first Sunday of November. Does TomCat v3 or v5.5
impacted by Daylight Savings Time change ?

If so, then are there fixpacks / patches available.

Regards
Rupam

Tomcat doesn't track DST begin and end.  That's taken care of in the JRE 
or JVM.  Take a look at you Java vendor's website (Sun or IBM) for support.

Haven't seen any code in 5.5 that "knows" when the changeover is; that
information is provided by the JRE.  Sun has announced which levels of
its JVM support the new changeover, although that may need further
updating when other countries match what the US is doing.  Can't speak
about other JVMs.

Tomcat (not TomCat) version 3?  "Surely, you can't be serious."
