NAME

6       Olson::Abbreviations -globally unique timezones abbreviation handling
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This module should help you with converting commonly used and often
10       ambigious olson abbreviations into TZ offset notation.
11
12   NOT COMPLETE
13       This module is released as 0.01 because it is useful. It is not
14       complete. In order to be complete in the author's eyes this module must
15       accept a locale and disambiguate based on that.
16
17       EST is not ambigious if your standing in the US or in Austrailia. This
18       module should handle this properly in the future.
