Thanks.  Unfortunately, the timezone calculation seems enormously
complicated to me.

Why not just use something like this:

if time.daylight: offset = time.altzone
else: offset = time.timezone
if offset < 0: sign, offset = '+', -offset
else: sign = '-'
offset = '%s%s%s' % (sign, offset / 3600, (offset % 3600) / 60)
