...
I am currently some developing software that requires me to figure out timezone/deviation from UTC and it also needs to be correct with at least the vast majority of DST issues. We are writting some Java code and I'm wondering if you know of any databases/libraries/APIs that we could use/purchase to help this happen - based on either a telephone number or city/state/country type information... Any help or advice that you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I assume he's on the list so, you didn't say, so I'll CC him anyway.

The tz database is read by the Java code available at: http://www.bmsi.com/java/#TZ It doesn't solve the geographical or phone number mapping problem, but it is half the problem.
