US Daylight Saving Time rule changes and Java

A reminder to Roller site administrators that they will
likely want to update the JVM on which they run Roller
before March 11, 2007 so that  the timezone rules
incorporate the new US DST rules.

The easiest way to update for most people will be to upgrade
to at least Sun JDK 1.4.2_11 or 1.5.0_10 (if you are running
Tomcat and Roller on 1.5).  These versions incorporate the
new rules.
