Description
If you pass a negative offset to FixedOffset, the tzinfo representation is misleading:
>>> from django.utils.tzinfo import FixedOffset >>> tz = FixedOffset(-510) >>> tz -0930
The attached patch simply calculates the hours as a float, which yields the more correct representation.
>>> from django.utils.tzinfo import FixedOffset >>> tz = FixedOffset(-510) >>> tz -0830

Good call on the tests as I caught additional cases. I'm not sure what kind of documentation is needed as needs_docs is set to 1.

The needs_docs was me being retarded. I was only to set needs_better_patch in that column.

You appear to have left off the portion of the patch that changes the tests. :-)
