I actually pointed that as a possible solution but the previous version of the API was not using that kind of TZ identifier IIRC. But as Marcos pointed, we should probably see who is interested to implement this API as-is and who wants to add TZ. If there is a good proposal and there are implementations for a TZ support in the Task Scheduler, I do not see a reason why not doing it. -- Mounir
