Changing a unix timestamp to a different timezone

Viewed 8877

I retrieve a unix timestamp from a web service in a Python program. This timestamp is in a USA timezone. In order to insert it in a MySQL database with other objects, localized in France, I would like to convert this timestamp to the French timezone.

I could do it with mathematical functions, but there is the issue of daylight savings time. I would prefer to use Python time and date specific functions which should deal with these concepts.

Do you have a hint, I am lost in the Python documentation?
