I was complaining that after the time change a recurring appointment showed
as the wrong time for march up until the old time change date even though I
had patched my time zones in Windows.

I'm assuming that now that the time zones are patched, if I were to
schedule another recurring appointment it would be correct for the next few
time changes.

   The twice a year EST/EDT change is part of the relationship.  That it
switches twice a year remains but when it switches between EST and EDT
changed.  That is the relationship change to which a refer.

   I don't know how recurring appts are handled in Outlook.  It's complex as
you can make changes to either the series or individual events and
everything just works.  Ignore these and consider single appts since these
are what people were complaining of being off after the government DST
change.

  Yes it did, but it that has always been true, it changes twice a year as
has
  been the case since I created the event in 2000. So you are saying when I
  created a recurring event in 2000 the system created a thousand separate
  events and used the EST/EDT standard to do so and now that this standard
has
  changed some of those events are scheduled for the wrong time and so this
is
  why a separate patch was required?

  So if I go and create a new recurring appointment today, it should be
  correct and not require a patch because outlook will use the corrected
  timezone information now?

     8 AM in your local time zone is not the same time in UTC every day.
The
  actual time depends on the relationship between localtime and UTC.  That
  relationship changed.
