    Created: [Apr 6, 2004]

    Defines a TZID iCalendar component property.

         4.8.3.1 Time Zone Identifier
    
            Property Name: TZID
    
            Purpose: This property specifies the text value that uniquely
            identifies the "VTIMEZONE" calendar component.
    
            Value Type: TEXT
    
            Property Parameters: Non-standard property parameters can be
            specified on this property.
    
            Conformance: This property MUST be specified in a "VTIMEZONE"
            calendar component.
    
            Description: This is the label by which a time zone calendar
            component is referenced by any iCalendar properties whose data type
            is either DATE-TIME or TIME and not intended to specify a UTC or a
            "floating" time. The presence of the SOLIDUS character (US-ASCII
            decimal 47) as a prefix, indicates that this TZID represents an
            unique ID in a globally defined time zone registry (when such
            registry is defined).
    
                 Note: This document does not define a naming convention for time
                 zone identifiers. Implementers may want to use the naming
                 conventions defined in existing time zone specifications such as
                 the public-domain Olson database [TZ]. The specification of
                 globally unique time zone identifiers is not addressed by this
                 document and is left for future study.
    
            Format Definition: This property is defined by the following
            notation:
    
              tzid       = "TZID" tzidpropparam ":" [tzidprefix] text CRLF
    
              tzidpropparam      = *(";" xparam)
    
              ;tzidprefix        = "/"
              ; Defined previously. Just listed here for reader convenience.
    
            Example: The following are examples of non-globally unique time zone
            identifiers:
    
              TZID:US-Eastern
    
              TZID:California-Los_Angeles
    
            The following is an example of a fictitious globally unique time zone
            identifier:
    
              TZID:/US-New_York-New_York
