If 8.0 comes with its own copy of a recent zic database, then, in
theory, it should be able to handle any timezone known to Java. (The
opposite is not necessarily true, as Java's timezone info seems to be
missing a lot of recent changes.) Does that sound like a correct
statement to you or did I forget some important qualifiers?
