As far as I can see the GPX spec doesn't allow for a timezone and requires that timestamps be UTC.

The GPX spec at http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/#type_wptType says that <time> is an xsd:dateTime. The XML Schema spec says that xsd:dateTime follow the ISO8601 date time format which can include a timezone offset: 'Z' for UTC, '+01:00' for UTC+1... See http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#dateTime

OK :) I've just released 0.25 that adds timezone support.
