The new U.S. daylight savings time changes in 2007 are already
supported by JodaTime.
From their FAQ:
---
Why reimplement TimeZone?
The JDK TimeZone class varies in the support it can provide from one
JDK release to another. The rules for determining Daylight Saving
Time also change frequently. The Joda solution uses the international
standard format for time zone rule data, and allows it to be updated
independently of the timing of JDK releases. With perhaps 8 releases
of the time zone rules per year this can be quite significant.
