US Daylight Saving Time rule changes and Java

A reminder to Roller site administrators that they will likely want to update the JVM on which they run Roller before March 11, 2007 so that  the timezone rules incorporate the new US DST rules.

The easiest way to update for most people will be to upgrade to at least Sun JDK 1.4.2_11 or 1.5.0_10 (if you are running Tomcat and Roller on 1.5).  These versions incorporate the new rules.

Here are some useful links with further info:
