+- <a href="timezone_display.utc_offset" name="timezone_display.utc_offset"></a> [`utc-offset`](#timezone_display.utc_offset): `u32`
+
+  The number of seconds difference between UTC time and the local time of

+
+  The returned value will always be less than 86400 which is the number of
+  seconds in a day (24*60*60).

+- <a href="timezone_display.name" name="timezone_display.name"></a> [`name`](#timezone_display.name): `string`
+
+  The abbreviated name of the timezone to display to a user. The name `UTC`
+  indicates Coordinated Universal Time. Otherwise, this should reference
+  local standards for the name of the time zone.
+
+  In implementations that do not expose an actual time zone, this should be
+  the string `UTC`.
+
+  In time zones that do not have an applicable name, a formatted
+  representation of the UTC offset may be returned, such as `-04:00`.

+- <a href="timezone_display.in_daylight_saving_time" name="timezone_display.in_daylight_saving_time"></a> [`in-daylight-saving-time`](#timezone_display.in_daylight_saving_time): `bool`
+
+  Whether daylight saving time is active.
+
+  In implementations that do not expose an actual time zone, this should
+  return false.
+
+# Functions
+
+----
+
+#### <a href="#timezone_display" name="timezone_display"></a> `timezone::display` 
+
+  Return information needed to display the given `datetime`. This includes
+  the UTC offset, the time zone name, and a flag indicating whether
+  daylight saving time is active.
+
+  If the timezone cannot be determined for the given `datetime`, return a
+  `timezone-display` for `UTC` with a `utc-offset` of 0 and no daylight
+  saving time.
+##### Params
+
+- <a href="#timezone_display.self" name="timezone_display.self"></a> `self`: handle<timezone>
+- <a href="#timezone_display.when" name="timezone_display.when"></a> `when`: [`datetime`](#datetime)
+##### Results
+
+- [`timezone-display`](#timezone_display)
+
+----
+
+#### <a href="#timezone_utc_offset" name="timezone_utc_offset"></a> `timezone::utc-offset` 
+
+  The same as `display`, but only return the UTC offset.
+##### Params

+- <a href="#timezone_utc_offset.self" name="timezone_utc_offset.self"></a> `self`: handle<timezone>
