I assume you mean globally-scoped names together with their corresponding VTIMEZONE component?
Yes, that's what I had in mind. But just defining the format of the global timezone names themselves would be a useful first step. (Offhand, I'm thinking in terms of /XX or /XX/yyy where XX is the iso 3166 country code and yyy is a political subdivision within that country. In many cases just /XX suffices. This probably doesn't cover all timezones that one might want to define, but it's a start.) -Keith
