The current release plan[0] shows that timezone support is planned
for 0.96; 0.94 is the latest stable release (and our Indico is
0.92.2). The CERN Indico server runs an unreleased CVS checkout of
their sources that should be more-or-less equivalent to 0.96.

I'm hesitant to deploy the unreleased code at Wisconsin (since
support won't be available and other sites haven't jumped yet). It
seems reasonable to me to wait to upgrade until CERN is happy enough
with their 0.96 work to actually release it. 

Christos: If you agree, I'll resolve this ticket for now and plan to
upgrade as soon as 0.96 is released. Based on traffic on their
mailing list, the version in production at CERN and their published
release schedule, 0.96 shouldn't be too far away. Does this sound OK
to you?
