[Mediawiki-l] non-utc time variables

Here is a snap from my LocalSettings.php:
------------------------------------------
#Changes made by Simon Wagner
#-Change the Time to Germany time
$wgLocaltimezone="Europe/Berlin";
$wgLocalTZoffset    = +2; //+1 Normal, +2 Sommertime
------------------------------------------
Well, but now i am coming up with a question:
Is there any support for automatic summer time change? I think there is a 
formula which calculates the day when the time offset changes, but i can't 
remember it.

S.W.
