I don't know if everyone is aware of this, but Python stdlib has support
for fixed-offset timezones since version 3.2:

http://docs.python.org/3.2/whatsnew/3.2.html#datetime-and-time

It took many years to bring in that feature, but now we can benefit from
not having to reinvent the wheel.

I will try to write up some specific proposal this weekend.
