Hi Mark,

I've submitted a patch to fix the Caracas offset in tzinfo_timezone:

http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8995-rails-plugins/tickets/44-caracas-timezone-has-changed-to-gmt-430

I've also submitted an equivalent patch for Rails, since it has a
similar list of Timezones:

Regards,

Phil
