Re: Issues with daylight saving time before 1980

Are you sure that the sweeden timezone is what is being used when you
are specifying the sweden local? I would assume it is, but that would
be my first assumption I'd check.

Also, the stock timezone.properties file only goes back to 1970 (not
your current problem, but potentially useful to someone else).
