OPERATING SYSTEM(S)
JDK VERSION(S): All (1.3.1, 1.4.2, 5.0)
DESCRIPTION:
Not all timezones are translated, this seems to be a limitation with in the JDK. If the translation is not found then the English version is used.
Here is the java class to test this problem:
import java.util.*;
public class TimeZoneDisplayName {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        String[] available = TimeZone.getAvailableIDs();
        TimeZone ivTz;
        for ( int i = 0; i < available.length; i++ )
        {
            ivTz = TimeZone.getTimeZone(available[i]);
            System.out.println(ivTz.getDisplayName(Locale.getDefault()));
        }
    }
}
If the description of all TimeZones available in the
French/Italy/etc language are printed, having changed the regional setting of the machine to the corresponding locale, not all descriptions are translated in French/Italy/etc.
