The problem with a static table is that it has to be maintained as changes to the TZDB and CLDR are released.

The better solution is to use a library that can do the conversions for you, and will stay on top of the updates for you.

Noda Time is the perfect choice for this. I have already documented how to convert between IANA/Olson and Windows time zones in this post: How to translate between Windows and IANA time zones?

As new updates to the TZDB and CLDR are released, you can simply get the latest version of Noda Time, or you can update it manually by following the instructions here.
