Daylight Savings Time change for 2007

So I am wondering what people are doing to plan for this. To me it looks like the OS should be fairly easy to deal with but I did notice that Java has some compatibility issues.

Are you assessing the impact of this on your applications? Do you think there is a significant risk to your desktop Java applications? How seriously is your organization addressing this?

Make sure you check all your applications -

Outlook 2003 will show up an hour off (calendar entries) for the first part of of Daylight time, and during the end of it...

There are a ton of other apps affected like this...

Exchange and Java were the big ones we found but we still don't know to what extent our Java applications are affected. This site I am at is scrambling to assess the impact of this change to their applications but as the Gartner report states vendors haven't exactly been stepping up to the plate on this issue. Some have but there still seems to be plenty of questions.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
