Doesn't support Daylight Savings Time

[vwbusguy]

It appears that tz-offset doesn't automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time, making it late by one hour during DST periods.

The offset appears to be hard-coded, which is why DST isn't recognized: https://github.com/node-cron/tz-offset/blob/master/generated/offsets.json

Just ran into this today. I know it can be tough to maintain FOSS libraries but this one really should have a warning that it's not ready to use. A cron library that runs things at the wrong time is pretty much a non-starter.

I'm very surprised that DST isn't handled.. this seems crazy.

Can you please approve his change request and merge it in... it will be so much easier to have node-cron consider DST

It's still not working - on node-cron version 3.0.2

Did version 4.1.1 solve this issue (with this PR-966?

It looks like this was solved in another similar project, but not in this particular library, AFAICT? This library has had a stalled PR for ~6 years:
