Bug #817: Valid timezone +1300 rejected - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

MI (mi@alma.ch) reports a bug with a severity of 3
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
Valid timezone +1300 rejected

Long Description
New Zealand Daylight Savings Time time zone is "+1300" (and others as well, I think). Silly, I agree, but that's how it
is.
Postgresql 7.2.2 rejects it as "Bad timestamp external representation".

Sample Code
pms=> create table test (t timestamp);
CREATE
pms=> insert into test values ('Tue, 12 Nov 2002 08:22:37 +0100');
INSERT 71853 1
pms=> insert into test values ('Tue, 12 Nov 2002 08:22:37 +1300');
ERROR:  Bad timestamp external representation 'Tue, 12 Nov 2002 08:22:37 +1300'
