+Contributing to the tz code and data
+
+The time zone database is by no means authoritative: governments
+change timekeeping rules erratically and sometimes with little
+warning, the data entries do not cover all of civil time before
+1970, and undoubtedly errors remain in the code and data. Feel
+free to fill gaps or fix mistakes, and please email improvements
+to tz@iana.org for use in the future.
+
+To email small changes, please run a POSIX shell command like
+'diff -u old/europe new/europe >myfix.patch', and attach
+myfix.patch to the email.
+
+For more-elaborate changes, please read the Theory file and browse
+the mailing list archives <http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/> for
+examples of patches that tend to work well. Ideally, additions to
+data should contain commentary citing reliable sources as
+justification.
+
+Please submit changes against either the latest release in
+<ftp://ftp.iana.org/tz/> or the master branch of the experimental
+Git repository. If you use Git the following workflow may be helpful:
+
+ * Copy the experimental repository.
+
+ git clone https://github.com/eggert/tz.git

+Release 2014g - 2014-08-28 12:31:23 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting future time stamps
+
+ Turks & Caicos is switching from US eastern time to UTC-4 year-round,
+ modeled as a switch from EST/EDT to AST on 2014-11-02 at 02:00.
+
+ Changes affecting past time stamps
+
+ Time in Russia or the USSR before 1926 or so has been corrected by
+ a few seconds in the following zones: Asia/Irkutsk,
+ Asia/Krasnoyarsk, Asia/Omsk, Asia/Samarkand, Asia/Tbilisi,
+ Asia/Vladivostok, Asia/Yakutsk, Europe/Riga, Europe/Samara. For
+ Asia/Yekaterinburg the correction is a few minutes. (Thanks to
+ Vladimir Karpinsky.)
+
+ The Portuguese decree of 1911-05-26 took effect on 1912-01-01.
+ This affects 1911 time stamps in Africa/Bissau, Africa/Luanda,
+ Atlantic/Azores, and Atlantic/Madeira. Also, Lisbon's pre-1912
+ GMT offset was -0:36:45 (rounded from -0:36:44.68), not -0:36:32.
+ (Thanks to Stephen Colebourne for pointing to the decree.)
+
+ Asia/Dhaka ended DST on 2009-12-31 at 24:00, not 23:59.
+
+ A new file 'backzone' contains data which may appeal to
+ connoisseurs of old time stamps, although it is out of scope for
+ the tz database, is often poorly sourced, and contains some data
+ that is known to be incorrect. The new file is not recommended
+ for ordinary use and its entries are not installed by default.
+ (Thanks to Lester Caine for the high-quality Jersey, Guernsey, and
+ Isle of Man entries.)
+
+ Some more zones have been turned into links, when they differed
+ from existing zones only for older time stamps. As usual,
+ these changes affect UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only.
+ Their old contents have been moved to the 'backzone' file.
+ The affected zones are: Africa/Bangui, Africa/Brazzaville,
+ Africa/Douala, Africa/Kinshasa, Africa/Libreville, Africa/Luanda,
+ Africa/Malabo, Africa/Niamey, and Africa/Porto-Novo.
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ Unless NETBSD_INSPIRED is defined to 0, the tz library now
+ supplies functions for creating and using objects that represent
+ time zones. The new functions are tzalloc, tzfree, localtime_rz,
+ mktime_z, and (if STD_INSPIRED is also defined) posix2time_z and
+ time2posix_z. They are intended for performance: for example,
+ localtime_rz (unlike localtime_r) is trivially thread-safe without
+ locking. (Thanks to Christos Zoulas for proposing NetBSD-inspired
+ functions, and to Alan Barrett and Jonathan Lennox for helping to
+ debug the change.)
+
+ zdump now builds with the tz library unless USE_LTZ is defined to 0,
+ This lets zdump use tz features even if the system library lacks them.
+ To build zdump with the system library, use 'make CFLAGS=-DUSE_LTZ=0
+ TZDOBJS=zdump.o CHECK_TIME_T_ALTERNATIVES='.
+
+ zdump now uses localtime_rz if available, as it's significantly faster,
+ and it can help zdump better diagnose invalid time zone names.
+ Define HAVE_LOCALTIME_RZ to 0 to suppress this. HAVE_LOCALTIME_RZ
+ defaults to 1 if NETBSD_INSPIRED && USE_LTZ. When localtime_rz is
+ not available, zdump now uses localtime_r and tzset if available,
+ as this is a bit cleaner and faster than plain localtime. Compile
+ with -DHAVE_LOCALTIME_R=0 and/or -DHAVE_TZSET=0 if your system
+ lacks these two functions.
+
+ If THREAD_SAFE is defined to 1, the tz library is now thread-safe.
+ Although not needed for tz's own applications, which are single-threaded,
+ this supports POSIX better if the tz library is used in multithreaded apps.
+
+ Some crashes have been fixed when zdump or the tz library is given
+ invalid or outlandish input.
+
+ The tz library no longer mishandles leap seconds on platforms with
+ unsigned time_t in time zones that lack ordinary transitions after 1970.
+
+ The tz code now attempts to infer TM_GMTOFF and TM_ZONE if not
+ already defined, to make it easier to configure on common platforms.
+ Define NO_TM_GMTOFF and NO_TM_ZONE to suppress this.
+
+ Unless the new macro UNINIT_TRAP is defined to 1, the tz code now
+ assumes that reading uninitialized memory yields garbage values
+ but does not cause other problems such as traps.
+
+ If TM_GMTOFF is defined and UNINIT_TRAP is 0, mktime is now
+ more likely to guess right for ambiguous time stamps near
+ transitions where tm_isdst does not change.
+
+ If HAVE_STRFTIME_L is defined to 1, the tz library now defines
+ strftime_l for compatibility with recent versions of POSIX.
+ Only the C locale is supported, though. HAVE_STRFTIME_L defaults
+ to 1 on recent POSIX versions, and to 0 otherwise.
+
+ tzselect -c now uses a hybrid distance measure that works better
+ in Africa. (Thanks to Alan Barrett for noting the problem.)
+
+ The C source code now ports to NetBSD when GCC_DEBUG_FLAGS is used,
+ or when time_tz is defined.
+
+ When HAVE_UTMPX_H is set the 'date' command now builds on systems
+ whose <utmpx.h> file does not define WTMPX_FILE, and when setting
+ the date it updates the wtmpx file if _PATH_WTMPX is defined.
+ This affects GNU/Linux and similar systems.
+
+ For easier maintenance later, some C code has been simplified,
+ some lint has been removed, and the code has been tweaked so that
+ plain 'make' is more likely to work.
+
+ The C type 'bool' is now used for boolean values, instead of 'int'.
+
+ The long-obsolete LOCALE_HOME code has been removed.
+
+ The long-obsolete 'gtime' function has been removed.
+
+ Changes affecting build procedure
+
+ 'zdump' no longer links in ialloc.o, as it's not needed.
+
+ 'make check_time_t_alternatives' no longer assumes GNU diff.
+
+ Changes affecting distribution tarballs
+
+ The files checktab.awk and zoneinfo2tdf.pl are now distributed in
+ the tzdata tarball instead of the tzcode tarball, since they help
+ maintain the data. The NEWS and Theory files are now also
+ distributed in the tzdata tarball, as they're relevant for data.
+ (Thanks to Alan Barrett for pointing this out.) Also, the
+ leapseconds.awk file is no longer distributed in the tzcode
+ tarball, since it belongs in the tzdata tarball (where 2014f
+ inadvertently also distributed it).
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ A new file CONTRIBUTING is distributed. (Thanks to Tim Parenti for
+ suggesting a CONTRIBUTING file, and to Tony Finch and Walter Harms
+ for debugging it.)
+
+ The man pages have been updated to use function prototypes,
+ to document thread-safe variants like localtime_r, and to document
+ the NetBSD-inspired functions tzalloc, tzfree, localtime_rz, and
+ mktime_z.
+
+ The fields in Link lines have been renamed to be more descriptive
+ and more like the parameters of 'ln'. LINK-FROM has become TARGET,
+ and LINK-TO has become LINK-NAME.
+
+ tz-link.htm mentions the IETF's tzdist working group; Windows
+ Runtime etc. (thanks to Matt Johnson); and HP-UX's tztab.
+
+ Some broken URLs have been fixed in the commentary. (Thanks to
+ Lester Caine.)
+
+ Commentary about Philippines DST has been updated, and commentary
+ on pre-1970 time in India has been added.
+
+
+Release 2014f - 2014-08-05 17:42:36 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting future time stamps
+
+ Russia will subtract an hour from most of its time zones on 2014-10-26
+ at 02:00 local time. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev.)
+ There are a few exceptions: Magadan Oblast (Asia/Magadan) and Zabaykalsky
+ Krai are subtracting two hours; conversely, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug
+ (Asia/Anadyr), Kamchatka Krai (Asia/Kamchatka), Kemerovo Oblast
+ (Asia/Novokuznetsk), and the Samara Oblast and the Udmurt Republic
+ (Europe/Samara) are not changing their clocks. The changed zones are
+ Europe/Kaliningrad, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Simferopol, Europe/Volgograd,
+ Asia/Yekaterinburg, Asia/Omsk, Asia/Novosibirsk, Asia/Krasnoyarsk,
+ Asia/Irkutsk, Asia/Yakutsk, Asia/Vladivostok, Asia/Khandyga,
+ Asia/Sakhalin, and Asia/Ust-Nera; Asia/Magadan will have two hours
+ subtracted; and Asia/Novokuznetsk's time zone abbreviation is affected,
+ but not its UTC offset. Two zones are added: Asia/Chita (split
+ from Asia/Yakutsk, and also with two hours subtracted) and
+ Asia/Srednekolymsk (split from Asia/Magadan, but with only one hour
+ subtracted). (Thanks to Tim Parenti for much of the above.)
+
+ Changes affecting time zone abbreviations
+
+ Australian eastern time zone abbreviations are now AEST/AEDT not EST,
+ and similarly for the other Australian zones. That is, for eastern
+ standard and daylight saving time the abbreviations are AEST and AEDT
+ instead of the former EST for both; similarly, ACST/ACDT, ACWST/ACWDT,
+ and AWST/AWDT are now used instead of the former CST, CWST, and WST.
+ This change does not affect UTC offsets, only time zone abbreviations.
+ (Thanks to Rich Tibbett and many others.)
+
+ Asia/Novokuznetsk shifts from NOVT to KRAT (remaining on UTC+7)
+ effective 2014-10-26 at 02:00 local time.
+
+ The time zone abbreviation for Xinjiang Time (observed in Ürümqi)
+ has been changed from URUT to XJT. (Thanks to Luther Ma.)
+
+ Prefer MSK/MSD for Moscow time in Russia, even in other cities.
+ Similarly, prefer EET/EEST for eastern European time in Russia.
+
+ Change time zone abbreviations in (western) Samoa to use "ST" and
+ "DT" suffixes, as this is more likely to match common practice.
+ Prefix "W" to (western) Samoa time when its standard-time offset
+ disagrees with that of American Samoa.
+
+ America/Metlakatla now uses PST, not MeST, to abbreviate its time zone.
+
+ Time zone abbreviations have been updated for Japan's two time
+ zones used 1896-1937. JWST now stands for Western Standard
+ Time, and JCST for Central Standard Time (formerly this was CJT).
+ These abbreviations are now used for time in Korea, Taiwan,
+ and Sakhalin while controlled by Japan.
+
+ Changes affecting past time stamps
+
+ China's five zones have been simplified to two, since the post-1970
+ differences in the other three seem to have been imaginary. The
+ zones Asia/Harbin, Asia/Chongqing, and Asia/Kashgar have been
+ removed; backwards-compatibility links still work, albeit with
+ different behaviors for time stamps before May 1980. Asia/Urumqi's
+ 1980 transition to UTC+8 has been removed, so that it is now at
+ UTC+6 and not UTC+8. (Thanks to Luther Ma and to Alois Treindl;
+ Treindl sent helpful translations of two papers by Guo Qingsheng.)
+
+ Some zones have been turned into links, when they differed from existing
+ zones only for older UTC offsets where data entries were likely invented.
+ These changes affect UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only. This is
+ similar to the change in release 2013e, except this time for western
+ Africa. The affected zones are: Africa/Bamako, Africa/Banjul,
+ Africa/Conakry, Africa/Dakar, Africa/Freetown, Africa/Lome,
+ Africa/Nouakchott, Africa/Ouagadougou, Africa/Sao_Tome, and
+ Atlantic/St_Helena. This also affects the backwards-compatibility
+ link Africa/Timbuktu. (Thanks to Alan Barrett, Stephen Colebourne,
+ Tim Parenti, and David Patte for reporting problems in earlier
+ versions of this change.)
+
+ Asia/Shanghai's pre-standard-time UT offset has been changed from
+ 8:05:57 to 8:05:43, the location of Xujiahui Observatory. Its
+ transition to standard time has been changed from 1928 to 1901.
+
+ Asia/Taipei switched to JWST on 1896-01-01, then to JST on 1937-10-01,
+ then to CST on 1945-09-21 at 01:00, and did not observe DST in 1945.
+ In 1946 it observed DST from 05-15 through 09-30; in 1947
+ from 04-15 through 10-31; and in 1979 from 07-01 through 09-30.
+ (Thanks to Yu-Cheng Chuang.)
+
+ Asia/Riyadh's transition to standard time is now 1947-03-14, not 1950.
+
+ Europe/Helsinki's 1942 fall-back transition was 10-04 at 01:00, not
+ 10-03 at 00:00. (Thanks to Konstantin Hyppönen.)
+
+ Pacific/Pago_Pago has been changed from UTC-11:30 to UTC-11 for the period
+ from 1911 to 1950.
+
+ Pacific/Chatham has been changed to New Zealand standard time plus
+ 45 minutes for the period before 1957, reflecting a 1956 remark in
+ the New Zealand parliament.
+
+ Europe/Budapest has several pre-1946 corrections: in 1918 the transition
+ out of DST was on 09-16, not 09-29; in 1919 it was on 11-24, not 09-15; in
+ 1945 it was on 11-01, not 11-03; in 1941 the transition to DST was 04-08
+ not 04-06 at 02:00; and there was no DST in 1920.
+
+ Africa/Accra is now assumed to have observed DST from 1920 through 1935.
+
+ Time in Russia before 1927 or so has been corrected by a few seconds in
+ the following zones: Europe/Moscow, Asia/Irkutsk, Asia/Tbilisi,
+ Asia/Tashkent, Asia/Vladivostok, Asia/Yekaterinburg, Europe/Helsinki, and
+ Europe/Riga. Also, Moscow's location has been changed to its Kilometer 0
+ point. (Thanks to Vladimir Karpinsky for the Moscow changes.)
+
+ Changes affecting data format
+
+ A new file 'zone1970.tab' supersedes 'zone.tab' in the installed data.
+ The new file's extended format allows multiple country codes per zone.
+ The older file is still installed but is deprecated; its format is
+ not changing and it will still be distributed for a while, but new
+ applications should use the new file.
+
+ The new file format simplifies maintenance of obscure locations.
+ To test this, it adds coverage for the Crozet Islands and the
+ Scattered Islands. (Thanks to Tobias Conradi and Antoine Leca.)
+
+ The file 'iso3166.tab' is planned to switch from ASCII to UTF-8.
+ It is still ASCII now, but commentary about the switch has been added.
+ The new file 'zone1970.tab' already uses UTF-8.
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ 'localtime', 'mktime', etc. now use much less stack space if ALL_STATE
+ is defined. (Thanks to Elliott Hughes for reporting the problem.)
+
+ 'zic' no longer mishandles input when ignoring case in locales that
+ are not compatible with English, e.g., unibyte Turkish locales when
+ compiled with HAVE_GETTEXT.
+
+ Error diagnostics of 'zic' and 'yearistype' have been reworded so that
+ they no longer use ASCII '-' as if it were a dash.
+
+ 'zic' now rejects output file names that contain '.' or '..' components.
+ (Thanks to Tim Parenti for reporting the problem.)
+
+ 'zic -v' now warns about output file names that do not follow
+ POSIX rules, or that contain a digit or '.'. (Thanks to Arthur
+ David Olson for starting the ball rolling on this.)
+
+ Some lint has been removed when using GCC_DEBUG_FLAGS with GCC 4.9.0.
+
+ Changes affecting build procedure
+
+ 'zic' no longer links in localtime.o and asctime.o, as they're not needed.
+ (Thanks to John Cochran.)
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ The 'Theory' file documents legacy names, the longstanding
+ exceptions to the POSIX-inspired file name rules.
+
+ The 'zic' documentation clarifies the role of time types when
+ interpreting dates. (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Documentation and commentary now prefer UTF-8 to US-ASCII,
+ allowing the use of proper accents in foreign words and names.
+ Code and data have not changed because of this. (Thanks to
+ Garrett Wollman, Ian Abbott, and Guy Harris for helping to debug
+ this.)
+
+ Non-HTML documentation and commentary now use plain-text URLs instead of
+ HTML insertions, and are more consistent about bracketing URLs when they
+ are not already surrounded by white space. (Thanks to suggestions by
+ Steffen Nurpmeso.)
+
+ There is new commentary about Xujiahui Observatory, the five time-zone
+ project in China from 1918 to 1949, timekeeping in Japanese-occupied
+ Shanghai, and Tibet Time in the 1950s. The sharp-eyed can spot the
+ warlord Jin Shuren in the data.
+
+ Commentary about the coverage of each Russian zone has been standardized.
+ (Thanks to Tim Parenti).
+
+ There is new commentary about contemporary timekeeping in Ethiopia.
+
+ Obsolete comments about a 2007 proposal for DST in Kuwait has been removed.
+
+ There is new commentary about time in Poland in 1919.
+
+ Proper credit has been given to DST inventor George Vernon Hudson.
+
+ Commentary about time in Metlakatla, AK and Resolute, NU has been
+ improved, with a new source for the former.
+
+ In zone.tab, Pacific/Easter no longer mentions Salas y Gómez, as it
+ is uninhabited.
+
+ Commentary about permanent Antarctic bases has been updated.
+
+ Several typos have been corrected. (Thanks to Tim Parenti for
+ contributing some of these fixes.)
+
+ tz-link.htm now mentions the JavaScript libraries Moment Timezone,
+ TimezoneJS.Date, Walltime-js, and Timezone. (Thanks to a heads-up
+ from Matt Johnson.) Also, it mentions the Go 'latlong' package.
+ (Thanks to a heads-up from Dirkjan Ochtman.)
+
+ The files usno1988, usno1989, usno1989a, usno1995, usno1997, and usno1998
+ have been removed. These obsolescent US Naval Observatory entries were no
+ longer helpful for maintenance. (Thanks to Tim Parenti for the suggestion.)
+
+
+Release 2014e - 2014-06-12 21:53:52 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting near-future time stamps
+
+ Egypt's 2014 Ramadan-based transitions are June 26 and July 31 at 24:00.
+ (Thanks to Imed Chihi.) Guess that from 2015 on Egypt will temporarily
+ switch to standard time at 24:00 the last Thursday before Ramadan, and
+ back to DST at 00:00 the first Friday after Ramadan.
+
+ Similarly, Morocco's are June 28 at 03:00 and August 2 at 02:00. (Thanks
+ to Milamber Space Network.) Guess that from 2015 on Morocco will
+ temporarily switch to standard time at 03:00 the last Saturday before
+ Ramadan, and back to DST at 02:00 the first Saturday after Ramadan.
+
+ Changes affecting past time stamps
+
+ The abbreviation "MSM" (Moscow Midsummer Time) is now used instead of
+ "MSD" for Moscow's double daylight time in summer 1921. Also, a typo
+ "VLASST" has been repaired to be "VLAST" for Vladivostok summer time
+ in 1991. (Thanks to Hank W. for reporting the problems.)
+
+ Changes affecting commentary
+
+ tz-link.htm now cites RFC 7265 for jCal, mentions PTP and the
+ draft CalDAV extension, updates URLs for TSP, TZInfo, IATA, and
+ removes stale pointers to World Time Explorer and WORLDTIME.
+
+
+Release 2014d - 2014-05-27 21:34:40 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ zic no longer generates files containing time stamps before the Big Bang.
+ This works around GNOME bug 730332
+ <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730332>.
+ (Thanks to Leonardo Chiquitto for reporting the bug, and to
+ Arthur David Olson and James Cloos for suggesting improvements to the fix.)
+
+ Changes affecting documentation
+
+ tz-link.htm now mentions GNOME.
+
+
+Release 2014c - 2014-05-13 07:44:13 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting near-future time stamps
+
+ Egypt observes DST starting 2014-05-15 at 24:00.
+ (Thanks to Ahmad El-Dardiry and Gunther Vermier.)
+ Details have not been announced, except that DST will not be observed
+ during Ramadan. Guess that DST will stop during the same Ramadan dates as
+ Morocco, and that Egypt's future spring and fall transitions will be the
+ same as 2010 when it last observed DST, namely April's last Friday at
+ 00:00 to September's last Thursday at 23:00 standard time. Also, guess
+ that Ramadan transitions will be at 00:00 standard time.
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ zic now generates transitions for minimum time values, eliminating guesswork
+ when handling low-valued time stamps. (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Port to Cygwin sans glibc. (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Changes affecting commentary and documentation
+
+ Remove now-confusing comment about Jordan. (Thanks to Oleksii Nochovnyi.)
+
+
+Release 2014b - 2014-03-24 21:28:50 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting near-future time stamps
+
+ Crimea switches to Moscow time on 2014-03-30 at 02:00 local time.
+ (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev.) Move its zone.tab entry from UA to RU.
+
+ New entry for Troll station, Antarctica. (Thanks to Paul-Inge Flakstad and
+ Bengt-Inge Larsson.) This is currently an approximation; a better version
+ will require the zic and localtime fixes mentioned below, and the plan is
+ to wait for a while until at least the zic fixes propagate.
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ 'zic' and 'localtime' no longer reject locations needing four transitions
+ per year for the foreseeable future. (Thanks to Andrew Main (Zefram).)
+ Also, 'zic' avoids some unlikely failures due to integer overflow.
+
+ Changes affecting build procedure
+
+ 'make check' now detects Rule lines defined but never used.
+ The NZAQ rules, an instance of this problem, have been removed.
+
+ Changes affecting commentary and documentation
+
+ Fix Tuesday/Thursday typo in description of time in Israel.
+ (Thanks to Bert Katz via Pavel Kharitonov and Mike Frysinger.)
+
+ Microsoft Windows 8.1 doesn't support tz database names. (Thanks
+ to Donald MacQueen.) Instead, the Microsoft Windows Store app
+ library supports them.
+
+ Add comments about Johnston Island time in the 1960s.
+ (Thanks to Lyle McElhaney.)
+
+ Morocco's 2014 DST start will be as predicted.
+ (Thanks to Sebastien Willemijns.)
+
+

+
+ Changes affecting near-future time stamps
+
+ Turkey begins DST on 2014-03-31, not 03-30. (Thanks to Faruk Pasin for
+ the heads-up, and to Tim Parenti for simplifying the update.)
+
+ Changes affecting past time stamps
+
+ Fiji ended DST on 2014-01-19 at 02:00, not the previously-scheduled 03:00.
+ (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Ukraine switched from Moscow to Eastern European time on 1990-07-01
+ (not 1992-01-01), and observed DST during the entire next winter.
+ (Thanks to Vladimir in Moscow via Alois Treindl.)
+
+ In 1988 Israel observed DST from 04-10 to 09-04, not 04-09 to 09-03.
+ (Thanks to Avigdor Finkelstein.)

+
+
+Release 2013i - 2013-12-17 07:25:23 -0800

+ In 2004, Cuba began DST on March 28, not April 4.
+ (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ The compile-time flag NOSOLAR has been removed, as nowadays the
+ benefit of slightly shrinking runtime table size is outweighed by the
+ cost of disallowing potential future updates that exceed old limits.
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ The files solar87, solar88, and solar89 are no longer distributed.
+ They were a negative experiment - that is, a demonstration that
+ tz data can represent solar time only with some difficulty and error.
+ Their presence in the distribution caused confusion, as Riyadh
+ civil time was generally not solar time in those years.
+
+ tz-link.htm now mentions Noda Time. (Thanks to Matt Johnson.)
+
+
+Release 2013h - 2013-10-25 15:32:32 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting current and future time stamps:
+
+ Libya has switched its time zone back to UTC+2 without DST,
+ instead of UTC+1 with DST. (Thanks to Even Scharning.)
+
+ Western Sahara (Africa/El_Aaiun) uses Morocco's DST rules.
+ (Thanks to Gwillim Law.)
+
+ Changes affecting future time stamps:
+
+ Acre and (we guess) western Amazonas will switch from UTC-4 to UTC-5
+ on 2013-11-10. This affects America/Rio_Branco and America/Eirunepe.
+ (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Add entries for DST transitions in Morocco in the year 2038.
+ This avoids some year-2038 glitches introduced in 2013g.
+ (Thanks to Yoshito Umaoka for reporting the problem.)
+
+ Changes affecting API
+
+ The 'tzselect' command no longer requires the 'select' command,
+ and should now work with /bin/sh on more platforms. It also works
+ around a bug in BusyBox awk before version 1.21.0. (Thanks to
+ Patrick 'P. J.' McDermott and Alan Barrett.)
+
+ Changes affecting code
+
+ Fix localtime overflow bugs with 32-bit unsigned time_t.
+
+ zdump no longer assumes sscanf returns maximal values on overflow.
+
+ Changes affecting the build procedure
+
+ The builder can specify which programs to use, if any, instead of
+ 'ar' and 'ranlib', and libtz.a is now built locally before being
+ installed. (Thanks to Michael Forney.)
+
+ A dependency typo in the 'zdump' rule has been fixed.
+ (Thanks to Andrew Paprocki.)
+
+ The Makefile has been simplified by assuming that 'mkdir -p' and 'cp -f'
+ work as specified by POSIX.2-1992 or later; this is portable nowadays.
+
+ 'make clean' no longer removes 'leapseconds', since it's
+ host-independent and is part of the distribution.
+
+ The unused makefile macros TZCSRCS, TZDSRCS, DATESRCS have been removed.
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ tz-link.htm now mentions TC TIMEZONE's draft time zone service protocol
+ (thanks to Mike Douglass) and TimezoneJS.Date (thanks to Jim Fehrle).
+
+ Update URLs in tz-link page. Add URLs for Microsoft Windows, since
+ 8.1 introduces tz support. Remove URLs for Tru64 and UnixWare (no
+ longer maintained) and for old advisories. SOFA now does C.
+
+Release 2013g - 2013-09-30 21:08:26 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting current and near-future time stamps
+
+ Morocco now observes DST from the last Sunday in March to the last
+ Sunday in October, not April to September respectively. (Thanks
+ to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Changes affecting 'zic'
+
+ 'zic' now runs on platforms that lack both hard links and symlinks.
+ (Thanks to Theo Veenker for reporting the problem, for MinGW.)
+ Also, fix some bugs on platforms that lack hard links but have symlinks.
+
+ 'zic -v' again warns that Asia/Tehran has no POSIX environment variable
+ to predict the far future, fixing a bug introduced in 2013e.
+
+ Changes affecting the build procedure
+
+ The 'leapseconds' file is again put into the tzdata tarball.
+ Also, 'leapseconds.awk', so tzdata is self-contained. (Thanks to
+ Matt Burgess and Ian Abbott.) The timestamps of these and other
+ dependent files in tarballs are adjusted more consistently.
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ The README file is now part of the data tarball as well as the code.
+ It now states that files are public domain unless otherwise specified.
+ (Thanks to Andrew Main (Zefram) for asking for clarifications.)
+ Its details about the 1989 release moved to a place of honor near
+ the end of NEWS.
+
+
+Release 2013f - 2013-09-24 23:37:36 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting near-future time stamps
+
+ Tocantins will very likely not observe DST starting this spring.
+ (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Jordan will likely stay at UTC+3 indefinitely, and will not fall
+ back this fall.
+
+ Palestine will fall back at 00:00, not 01:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Changes affecting API
+
+ The types of the global variables 'timezone' and 'altzone' (if present)
+ have been changed back to 'long'. This is required for 'timezone'
+ by POSIX, and for 'altzone' by common practice, e.g., Solaris 11.
+ These variables were originally 'long' in the tz code, but were
+ mistakenly changed to 'time_t' in 1987; nobody reported the
+ incompatibility until now. The difference matters on x32, where
+ 'long' is 32 bits and 'time_t' is 64. (Thanks to Elliott Hughes.)
+
+ Changes affecting the build procedure
+
+ Avoid long strings in leapseconds.awk to work around a mawk bug.
+ (Thanks to Cyril Baurand.)
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ New file 'NEWS' that contains release notes like this one.
+
+ Paraguay's law does not specify DST transition time; 00:00 is customary.
+ (Thanks to Waldemar Villamayor-Venialbo.)
+
+ Minor capitalization fixes.
+
+ Changes affecting version-control only
+
+ The experimental GitHub repository now contains annotated and
+ signed tags for recent releases, e.g., '2013e' for Release 2013e.
+ Releases are tagged starting with 2012e; earlier releases were
+ done differently, and tags would either not have a simple name or
+ not exactly match what was released.
+
+ 'make set-timestamps' is now simpler and a bit more portable.
+
+
+Release 2013e - 2013-09-19 23:50:04 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting near-future time stamps
+
+ This year Fiji will start DST on October 27, not October 20.
+ (Thanks to David Wheeler for the heads-up.) For now, guess that
+ Fiji will continue to spring forward the Sunday before the fourth
+ Monday in October.
+
+ Changes affecting current and future time zone abbreviations
+
+ Use WIB/WITA/WIT rather than WIT/CIT/EIT for alphabetic Indonesian
+ time zone abbreviations since 1932. (Thanks to George Ziegler,
+ Priyadi Iman Nurcahyo, Zakaria, Jason Grimes, Martin Pitt, and
+ Benny Lin.) This affects Asia/Dili, Asia/Jakarta, Asia/Jayapura,
+ Asia/Makassar, and Asia/Pontianak.
+
+ Use ART (UTC-3, standard time), rather than WARST (also UTC-3, but
+ daylight saving time) for San Luis, Argentina since 2009.
+
+ Changes affecting Godthåb time stamps after 2037 if version mismatch
+
+ Allow POSIX-like TZ strings where the transition time's hour can
+ range from -167 through 167, instead of the POSIX-required 0
+ through 24. E.g., TZ='FJT-12FJST,M10.3.1/146,M1.3.4/75' for the
+ new Fiji rules. This is a more-compact way to represent
+ far-future time stamps for America/Godthab, America/Santiago,
+ Antarctica/Palmer, Asia/Gaza, Asia/Hebron, Asia/Jerusalem,
+ Pacific/Easter, and Pacific/Fiji. Other zones are unaffected by
+ this change. (Derived from a suggestion by Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Allow POSIX-like TZ strings where daylight saving time is in
+ effect all year. E.g., TZ='WART4WARST,J1/0,J365/25' for Western
+ Argentina Summer Time all year. This supports a more-compact way
+ to represent the 2013d data for America/Argentina/San_Luis.
+ Because of the change for San Luis noted above this change does not
+ affect the current data. (Thanks to Andrew Main (Zefram) for
+ suggestions that improved this change.)
+
+ Where these two TZ changes take effect, there is a minor extension
+ to the tz file format in that it allows new values for the
+ embedded TZ-format string, and the tz file format version number
+ has therefore been increased from 2 to 3 as a precaution.
+ Version-2-based client code should continue to work as before for
+ all time stamps before 2038. Existing version-2-based client code
+ (tzcode, GNU/Linux, Solaris) has been tested on version-3-format
+ files, and typically works in practice even for time stamps after
+ 2037; the only known exception is America/Godthab.
+
+ Changes affecting time stamps before 1970
+
+ Pacific/Johnston is now a link to Pacific/Honolulu. This corrects
+ some errors before 1947.
+
+ Some zones have been turned into links, when they differ from existing
+ zones only in older data entries that were likely invented or that
+ differ only in LMT or transitions from LMT. These changes affect
+ only time stamps before 1943. The affected zones are:
+ Africa/Juba, America/Anguilla, America/Aruba, America/Dominica,
+ America/Grenada, America/Guadeloupe, America/Marigot,
+ America/Montserrat, America/St_Barthelemy, America/St_Kitts,
+ America/St_Lucia, America/St_Thomas, America/St_Vincent,
+ America/Tortola, and Europe/Vaduz. (Thanks to Alois Treindl for
+ confirming that the old Europe/Vaduz zone was wrong and the new
+ link is better for WWII-era times.)
+
+ Change Kingston Mean Time from -5:07:12 to -5:07:11. This affects
+ America/Cayman, America/Jamaica and America/Grand_Turk time stamps
+ from 1890 to 1912.
+
+ Change the UT offset of Bern Mean Time from 0:29:44 to 0:29:46.
+ This affects Europe/Zurich time stamps from 1853 to 1894. (Thanks
+ to Alois Treindl).
+
+ Change the date of the circa-1850 Zurich transition from 1849-09-12
+ to 1853-07-16, overriding Shanks with data from Messerli about
+ postal and telegraph time in Switzerland.
+
+ Changes affecting time zone abbreviations before 1970
+
+ For Asia/Jakarta, use BMT (not JMT) for mean time from 1923 to 1932,
+ as Jakarta was called Batavia back then.
+
+ Changes affecting API
+
+ The 'zic' command now outputs a dummy transition when far-future
+ data can't be summarized using a TZ string, and uses a 402-year
+ window rather than a 400-year window. For the current data, this
+ affects only the Asia/Tehran file. It does not affect any of the
+ time stamps that this file represents, so zdump outputs the same
+ information as before. (Thanks to Andrew Main (Zefram).)
+
+ The 'date' command has a new '-r' option, which lets you specify
+ the integer time to display, a la FreeBSD.
+
+ The 'tzselect' command has two new options '-c' and '-n', which lets you
+ select a zone based on latitude and longitude.
+
+ The 'zic' command's '-v' option now warns about constructs that
+ require the new version-3 binary file format. (Thanks to Arthur
+ David Olson for the suggestion.)
+
+ Support for floating-point time_t has been removed.
+ It was always dicey, and POSIX no longer requires it.
+ (Thanks to Eric Blake for suggesting to the POSIX committee to
+ remove it, and thanks to Alan Barrett, Clive D.W. Feather, Andy
+ Heninger, Arthur David Olson, and Alois Treindl, for reporting
+ bugs and elucidating some of the corners of the old floating-point
+ implementation.)
+
+ The signatures of 'offtime', 'timeoff', and 'gtime' have been
+ changed back to the old practice of using 'long' to represent UT
+ offsets. This had been inadvertently and mistakenly changed to
+ 'int_fast32_t'. (Thanks to Christos Zoulas.)
+
+ The code avoids undefined behavior on integer overflow in some
+ more places, including gmtime, localtime, mktime and zdump.
+
+ Changes affecting the zdump utility
+
+ zdump now outputs "UT" when referring to Universal Time, not "UTC".
+ "UTC" does not make sense for time stamps that predate the introduction
+ of UTC, whereas "UT", a more-generic term, does. (Thanks to Steve Allen
+ for clarifying UT vs UTC.)
+
+ Data changes affecting behavior of tzselect and similar programs
+
+ Country code BQ is now called the more-common name "Caribbean Netherlands"
+ rather than the more-official "Bonaire, St Eustatius & Saba".
+
+ Remove from zone.tab the names America/Montreal, America/Shiprock,
+ and Antarctica/South_Pole, as they are equivalent to existing
+ same-country-code zones for post-1970 time stamps. The data entries for
+ these names are unchanged, so the names continue to work as before.
+
+ Changes affecting code internals
+
+ zic -c now runs way faster on 64-bit hosts when given large numbers.
+
+ zic now uses vfprintf to avoid allocating and freeing some memory.
+
+ tzselect now computes the list of continents from the data,
+ rather than have it hard-coded.
+
+ Minor changes pacify GCC 4.7.3 and GCC 4.8.1.
+
+ Changes affecting the build procedure
+
+ The 'leapseconds' file is now generated automatically from a
+ new file 'leap-seconds.list', which is a copy of
+ <ftp://time.nist.gov/pub/leap-seconds.list>.
+ A new source file 'leapseconds.awk' implements this.
+ The goal is simplification of the future maintenance of 'leapseconds'.
+
+ When building the 'posix' or 'right' subdirectories, if the
+ subdirectory would be a copy of the default subdirectory, it is
+ now made a symbolic link if that is supported. This saves about
+ 2 MB of file system space.
+
+ The links America/Shiprock and Antarctica/South_Pole have been
+ moved to the 'backward' file. This affects only nondefault builds
+ that omit 'backward'.
+
+ Changes affecting version-control only
+
+ .gitignore now ignores 'date'.
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary
+
+ Changes to the 'tzfile' man page
+
+ It now mentions that the binary file format may be extended in
+ future versions by appending data.
+
+ It now refers to the 'zdump' and 'zic' man pages.
+
+ Changes to the 'zic' man page
+
+ It lists conditions that elicit a warning with '-v'.
+
+ It says that the behavior is unspecified when duplicate names
+ are given, or if the source of one link is the target of another.
+
+ Its examples are updated to match the latest data.
+
+ The definition of white space has been clarified slightly.
+ (Thanks to Michael Deckers.)
+
+ Changes to the 'Theory' file
+
+ There is a new section about the accuracy of the tz database,
+ describing the many ways that errors can creep in, and
+ explaining why so many of the pre-1970 time stamps are wrong or
+ misleading (thanks to Steve Allen, Lester Caine, and Garrett
+ Wollman for discussions that contributed to this).
+
+ The 'Theory' file describes LMT better (this follows a
+ suggestion by Guy Harris).
+
+ It refers to the 2013 edition of POSIX rather than the 2004 edition.
+
+ It's mentioned that excluding 'backward' should not affect the
+ other data, and it suggests at least one zone.tab name per
+ inhabited country (thanks to Stephen Colebourne).
+
+ Some longstanding restrictions on names are documented, e.g.,
+ 'America/New_York' precludes 'America/New_York/Bronx'.
+
+ It gives more reasons for the 1970 cutoff.
+
+ It now mentions which time_t variants are supported, such as
+ signed integer time_t. (Thanks to Paul Goyette for reporting
+ typos in an experimental version of this change.)
+
+ (Thanks to Philip Newton for correcting typos in these changes.)
+
+ Documentation and commentary is more careful to distinguish UT in
+ general from UTC in particular. (Thanks to Steve Allen.)
+
+ Add a better source for the Zurich 1894 transition.
+ (Thanks to Pierre-Yves Berger.)
+
+ Update shapefile citations in tz-link.htm. (Thanks to Guy Harris.)
+
+
+Release 2013d - 2013-07-05 07:38:01 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting future time stamps:
+
+ Morocco's midsummer transitions this year are July 7 and August 10,
+ not July 9 and August 8. (Thanks to Andrew Paprocki.)
+
+ Israel now falls back on the last Sunday of October.
+ (Thanks to Ephraim Silverberg.)
+
+ Changes affecting past time stamps:
+
+ Specify Jerusalem's location more precisely; this changes the pre-1880
+ times by 2 s.
+
+ Changing affecting metadata only:
+
+ Fix typos in the entries for country codes BQ and SX.
+
+ Changes affecting code:
+
+ Rework the code to fix a bug with handling Australia/Macquarie on
+ 32-bit hosts (thanks to Arthur David Olson).
+
+ Port to platforms like NetBSD, where time_t can be wider than long.
+
+ Add support for testing time_t types other than the system's.
+ Run 'make check_time_t_alternatives' to try this out.
+ Currently, the tests fail for unsigned time_t;
+ this should get fixed at some point.
+
+ Changes affecting documentation and commentary:
+
+ Deemphasize the significance of national borders.
+
+ Update the zdump man page.
+
+ Remove obsolete NOID comment (thanks to Denis Excoffier).
+
+ Update several URLs and comments in the web pages.
+
+ Spelling fixes (thanks to Kevin Lyda and Jonathan Leffler).
+
+ Update URL for CLDR Zone->Tzid table (thanks to Yoshito Umaoka).
+
+
+Release 2013c - 2013-04-19 16:17:40 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting current and future time stamps:
+
+ Palestine observed DST starting March 29, 2013. (Thanks to
+ Steffen Thorsen.) From 2013 on, Gaza and Hebron both observe DST,
+ with the predicted rules being the last Thursday in March at 24:00
+ to the first Friday on or after September 21 at 01:00.
+
+ Assume that the recent change to Paraguay's DST rules is permanent,
+ by moving the end of DST to the 4th Sunday in March every year.
+ (Thanks to Carlos Raúl Perasso.)
+
+ Changes affecting past time stamps:
+
+ Fix some historical data for Palestine to agree with that of
+ timeanddate.com, as follows:
+
+ The spring 2008 change in Gaza and Hebron was on 00:00 Mar 28, not
+ 00:00 Apr 1.
+
+ The fall 2009 change in Gaza and Hebron on Sep 4 was at 01:00, not
+ 02:00.
+
+ The spring 2010 change in Hebron was 00:00 Mar 26, not 00:01 Mar 27.
+
+ The spring 2011 change in Gaza was 00:01 Apr 1, not 12:01 Apr 2.
+
+ The spring 2011 change in Hebron on Apr 1 was at 00:01, not 12:01.
+
+ The fall 2011 change in Hebron on Sep 30 was at 00:00, not 03:00.
+
+ Fix times of habitation for Macquarie to agree with the Tasmania
+ Parks & Wildlife Service history, which indicates that permanent
+ habitation was 1899-1919 and 1948 on.
+
+ Changing affecting metadata only:
+
+ Macquarie Island is politically part of Australia, not Antarctica.
+ (Thanks to Tobias Conradi.)
+
+ Sort Macquarie more-consistently with other parts of Australia.
+ (Thanks to Tim Parenti.)
+
+
+Release 2013b - 2013-03-10 22:33:40 -0700
+
+ Changes affecting current and future time stamps:
+
+ Haiti uses US daylight-saving rules this year, and presumably future years.
+ This changes time stamps starting today. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Paraguay will end DST on March 24 this year.
+ (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) For now, assume it's just this year.
+
+ Morocco does not observe DST during Ramadan;
+ try to predict Ramadan in Morocco as best we can.
+ (Thanks to Erik Homoet for the heads-up.)
+
+ Changes affecting commentary:
+
+ Update URLs in tz-link page. Add URLs for webOS, BB10, iOS.
+ Update URL for Solaris. Mention Internet RFC 6557.
+ Update Internet RFCs 2445->5545, 2822->5322.
+ Switch from FTP to HTTP for Internet RFCs.
+
+
+Release 2013a - 2013-02-27 09:20:35 -0800
+
+ Change affecting binary data format:
+
+ The zone offset at the end of version-2-format zone files is now
+ allowed to be 24:00, as per POSIX.1-2008. (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Changes affecting current and future time stamps:
+
+ Chile's 2013 rules, and we guess rules for 2014 and later, will be
+ the same as 2012, namely Apr Sun>=23 03:00 UTC to Sep Sun>=2 04:00 UTC.
+ (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen and Robert Elz.)
+
+ New Zones Asia/Khandyga, Asia/Ust-Nera, Europe/Busingen.
+ (Thanks to Tobias Conradi and Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Many changes affect historical time stamps before 1940.
+ These were deduced from: Milne J. Civil time. Geogr J. 1899
+ Feb;13(2):173-94 <http://www.jstor.org/stable/1774359>.
+
+ Changes affecting the code:
+
+ Fix zic bug that mishandled Egypt's 2010 changes (this also affected
+ the data). (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Fix localtime bug when time_t is unsigned and data files were generated
+ by a signed time_t system. (Thanks to Doug Bailey for reporting and
+ to Arthur David Olson for fixing.)
+
+ Allow the email address for bug reports to be set by the packager.
+ The default is tz@iana.org, as before. (Thanks to Joseph S. Myers.)
+
+ Update HTML checking to be compatible with Ubuntu 12.10.
+
+ Check that files are a safe subset of ASCII. At some point we may
+ relax this requirement to a safe subset of UTF-8. Without the
+ check, some non-UTF-8 encodings were leaking into the distribution.
+
+ Commentary changes:
+
+ Restore a comment about copyright notices that was inadvertently deleted.
+ (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+ Improve the commentary about which districts observe what times
+ in Russia. (Thanks to Oscar van Vlijmen and Arthur David Olson).
+
+ Add web page links to tz.js.
+
+ Add "Run by the Monkeys" to tz-art. (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)
+
+
+Release 2012j - 2012-11-12 18:34:49 -0800
+
+ Libya moved to CET this weekend, but with DST planned next year.
+ (Thanks to Even Scharning, Steffen Thorsen, and Tim Parenti.)
+
+ Signatures now have the extension .asc, not .sign, as that's more
+ standard. (Thanks to Phil Pennock.)
+
+ The output of 'zdump --version', and of 'zic --version', now
+ uses a format that is more typical for --version.
+ (Thanks to Joseph S. Myers.)
+
+ The output of 'tzselect --help', 'zdump --help', and 'zic --help'
+ now uses tz@iana.org rather than the old elsie address.
+
+ zic -v now complains about abbreviations that are less than 3
+ or more than 6 characters, as per Posix. Formerly, it checked
+ for abbreviations that were more than 3.
+
+ 'make public' no longer puts its temporary directory under /tmp,
+ and uses the just-built zic rather than the system zic.
+
+ Various fixes to documentation and commentary.
+
+
+Release 2012i - 2012-11-03 12:57:09 -0700
+
+ Cuba switches from DST tomorrow at 01:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Linker flags can now be specified via LDFLAGS.
+ AWK now defaults to 'awk', not 'nawk'.
+ The shell in tzselect now defaults to /bin/bash, but this can
+ be overridden by specifying KSHELL.
+ The main web page now mentions the unofficial GitHub repository.
+ (Thanks to Mike Frysinger.)
+
+ Tarball signatures can now be built by running 'make signatures'.
+ There are also new makefile rules 'tarballs', 'check_public', and
+ separate makefile rules for each tarball and signature file.
+ A few makefile rules are now more portable to strict POSIX.
+
+ The main web page now lists the canonical IANA URL.
+
+
+Release 2012h - 2012-10-26 22:49:10 -0700
+
+ Bahia no longer has DST. (Thanks to Kelley Cook.)
+
+ Tocantins has DST. (Thanks to Rodrigo Severo.)
+
+ Israel has new DST rules next year. (Thanks to Ephraim Silverberg.)
+
+ Jordan stays on DST this winter. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Web page updates.
+
+ More C modernization, except that at Arthur David Olson's suggestion
+ the instances of 'register' were kept.
+
+
+Release 2012g - 2012-10-17 20:59:45 -0700
+
+ Samoa fall 2012 and later. (Thanks to Nicholas Pereira and Robert Elz.)
+
+ Palestine fall 2012. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
+
+ Assume C89.
+
+ To attack the version-number problem, this release ships the file
+ 'Makefile' (which contains the release number) in both the tzcode and
+ the tzdata tarballs. The two Makefiles are identical, and should be
+ identical in any matching pair of tarballs, so it shouldn't matter
+ which order you extract the tarballs. Perhaps we can come up with a
+ better version-number scheme at some point; this scheme does have the
+ virtue of not adding more files.
+
+
+Release 2012f - 2012-09-12 23:17:03 -0700

+Release 2012b - 2012-03-02 12:29:15 +0700
+
+ There is just one change to tzcode2012b (compared with 2012a):
+ the Makefile that was accidentally included with 2012a has been
+ replaced with the version that should have been there, which is
+ identical with the previous version (from tzcode2011i).
+
+ There are just two changes in tzdata2012b compared with 2012a.
+
+ Most significantly, summer time in Cuba has been delayed 3 weeks
+ (now starts April 1 rather than March 11). Since Mar 11 (the old start
+ date, as listed in 2012a) is just a little over a week away, this
+ change is urgent.
+
+ Less importantly, an excess tab in one of the changes in zone.tab
+ in 2012a has been removed.
+
+
+Release 2012a - 2012-03-01 18:28:10 +0700
+
+ The changes in tzcode2012a (compared to the previous version, 2011i)
+ are entirely to the README and tz-art.htm and tz-link.htm files, if
+ none of those concern you, you can ignore the code update. The changes
+ reflect the changed addresses for the mailing list and the code and
+ data distribution points & methods (and a link to DateTime::TimeZone::Tzfile
+ has been added to tz-link.htm).
+
+ In tzdata2012a (compared to the previous release, which was 2011n)
+ the major changes are:
+ Chile 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 summer time date adjustments.
+ Falkland Islands onto permanent summer time (we're assuming for the
+ foreseeable future, though 2012 is all we're fairly certain of.)
+ Armenia has abolished Summer Time.
+ Tokelau jumped the International Date Line back last December
+ (just the same as their near neighbour, Samoa).
+ America/Creston is a new zone for a small area of British Columbia
+ There will be a leapsecond 2012-06-30 23:59:60 UTC.
+
+ Other minor changes are:
+ Corrections to 1918 Canadian summer time end dates.
+ Updated URL for UK time zone history (in comments)
+ A few typos in Le Corre's list of free French place names (comments)
+
+
+Release data2011n - 2011-10-30 14:57:54 +0700
+
+ There are three changes of note - most urgently, Cuba (America/Havana)
+ has extended summer time by two weeks, now to end on Nov 13, rather than
+ the (already past) Oct 30. Second, the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
+ (Europe/Tiraspol) decided not to split from the rest of Moldova after
+ all, and consequently that zone has been removed (again) and reinstated
+ in the "backward" file as a link to Europe/Chisinau. And third, the
+ end date for Fiji's summer time this summer was moved forward from the
+ earlier planned Feb 26, to Jan 22.
+
+ Apart from that, Moldova (MD) returns to a single entry in zone.tab
+ (and the incorrect syntax that was in the 2011m version of that file
+ is so fixed - it would have been fixed in a different way had this
+ change not happened - that's the "missing" sccs version id).
+
+
+Release data2011m - 2011-10-24 21:42:16 +0700
+
+ In particular, the typos in comments in the data (2011-11-17 should have
+ been 2011-10-17 as Alan Barrett noted, and spelling of Tiraspol that
+ Tim Parenti noted) have been fixed, and the change for Ukraine has been
+ made in all 4 Ukrainian zones, rather than just Kiev (again, thanks to
+ Tim Parenti, and also Denys Gavrysh)
+
+ In addition, I added Europe/Tiraspol to zone.tab.
+
+ This time, all the files have new version numbers... (including the files
+ otherwise unchanged in 2011m that were changed in 2011l but didn't get new
+ version numbers there...)
+
+
+Release data2011l - 2011-10-10 11:15:43 +0700
+
+ There are just 2 changes that cause different generated tzdata files from
+ zic, to Asia/Hebron and Pacific/Fiji - the possible change for Bahia, Brazil
+ is included, but commented out. Compared with the diff I sent out last week,
+ this version also includes attributions for the sources for the changes
+ (in much the same format as ado used, but the html tags have not been
+ checked, verified, or used in any way at all, so if there are errors there,
+ please let me know.)

+ [tzcode96f.tar.gz + tzdata96g.tar.gz are both missing!]
+
+ The changes get us some of the way to fixing the problems noted in Paul
+ Eggert's letter yesterday (in addition to a few others). The approach
+ has been to make zic a bit smarter about figuring out what time zone
+ abbreviations apply just after the time specified in the "UNTIL" part
+ of a zone line. Putting the smarts in zic means avoiding having
+ transition times show up in both "Zone" lines and "Rule" lines, which
+ in turn avoids multiple transition time entries in time zone files.
+ (This also makes the zic input files such as "europe" a bit shorter and
+ should ease maintenance.)

+Release 95b - 1995-03-04 11:22:38 -0500
+
+ Minor changes in both:
+
+ The "code" file contains a workaround for the lack of "unistd.h" in
+ Microsoft C++ version 7.
+
+ The "data" file contains a fixed "Link" for America/Shiprock.
+
+
+Release 94h - 1994-12-10 12:51:14 -0500
+
+ The files:
+
+ * incorporate the changes to "zdump" and "date" to make changes to
+ the "TZ" environment variable permanent;
+
+ * incorporate the table changes by Paul Eggert;
+
+ * include (and document) support for universal time specifications in
+ data files - but do not (yet) include use of this feature in the
+ data files.
+
+ Think of this as "TZ Classic" - the software has been set up not to break if
+ universal time shows up in its input, and data entries have been
+ left as is so as not to break existing implementations.
+
+

+
+ (with thanks!) the latest data updates from Paul Eggert

+
+
+Release code94c - 1994-02-10 08:52:40 -0500
+
+ Fix bug where mkdirs was broken unless you compile with
+ -fwritable-strings (which is generally losing to do).
+
+
+Release 94b - 1994-02-07 10:04:33 -0500
+
+ work by Paul Eggert who notes:
+
+ I found another book of time zone histories by E W Whitman; it's not
+ as extensive as Shanks but has a few goodies of its own. I used it
+ to update the tables. I also fixed some more as a result of
+ correspondence with Adam David and Peter Ilieve, and move some stray
+ links from 'europe' to 'backward'. I corrected some scanning errors
+ in usno1989.
+
+ As far as the code goes, I fixed zic to allow years in the range
+ INT_MIN to INT_MAX; this fixed a few boundary conditions around 1900.
+ And I cleaned up the zic documentation a little bit.
+
+
+Release data94a - 1994-02-03 08:58:54 -0500
+
+ It simply incorporates the recently announced leap second into the
+ "leapseconds" file.
+
+
+Release 93g - 1993-11-22 17:28:27 -0500
+
+ Paul Eggert has provided a good deal of historic information (based
+ on Shanks), and there are some code changes to deal with the buglets
+ that crawled out in dealing with the new information.
+
+
+Release 93f - 1993-10-15 12:27:46 -0400
+
+ Paul Eggert's changes
+
+
+Release 93e - 1993-09-05 21:21:44 -0400
+
+ This has updated data for Israel, England, and Kwajalein. There's
+ also an update to "zdump" to cope with Kwajalein's 24-hour jump.
+ Thanks to Paul Eggert and Peter Ilieve for the changes.
+
+
+Release 93d - 1993-06-17 23:34:17 -0400
+
+ new fix and new data on Israel
+
+
+Release 93c - 1993-06-06 19:31:55 -0400
+
+ [not summarized]
+
+
+Release 93b - 1993-02-02 14:53:58 -0500
+
+ updated "leapseconds" file
+
+
+Release 93 - 1993-01-08 07:01:06 -0500
+
+ At kre's suggestion, the package has been split in two - a code piece
+ (which also includes documentation) that's only of use to folks who
+ want to recompile things and a data piece useful to anyone who can
+ run "zic".
+
+ The new version has a few changes to the data files, a few
+ portability changes, and an off-by-one fix (with thanks to
+ Tom Karzes at deshaw.com for providing a description and a
+ solution).
+
+
+Release 92c - 1992-11-21 17:35:36 -0000
+ [tz92c.tar.Z is missing!]
+
+ The fallout from the latest round of DST transitions.
+
+ There are changes for Portugal, Saskatchewan, and "Pacific-New";
+ there's also a change to "zic.c" that makes it portable to more systems.
+
+
+Release 92 - 1992-04-25 18:17:03 -0000
+ [tz92.tar.Z is missing!]
+
+ By popular demand (well, at any rate, following a request by kre at munnari)
+
+
+The 1989 update of the time zone package featured:
+
+ * POSIXization (including interpretation of POSIX-style TZ environment
+ variables, provided by Guy Harris),
+ * ANSIfication (including versions of "mktime" and "difftime"),
+ * SVIDulation (an "altzone" variable)
+ * MACHination (the "gtime" function)
+ * corrections to some time zone data (including corrections to the rules
+ for Great Britain and New Zealand)
+ * reference data from the United States Naval Observatory for folks who
+ want to do additional time zones
+ * and the 1989 data for Saudi Arabia.
+
+ (Since this code will be treated as "part of the implementation" in some
+ places and as "part of the application" in others, there's no good way to
+ name functions, such as timegm, that are not part of the proposed ANSI C
+ standard; such functions have kept their old, underscore-free names in this
+ update.)
+
+ And the "dysize" function has disappeared; it was present to allow
+ compilation of the "date" command on old BSD systems, and a version of "date"
+ is now provided in the package. The "date" command is not created when you
+ "make all" since it may lack options provided by the version distributed with
+ your operating system, or may not interact with the system in the same way
+ the native version does.
+
+ Since POSIX frowns on correct leap second handling, the default behavior of
+ the "zic" command (in the absence of a "-L" option) has been changed to omit
+ leap second information from its output files.

+Notes
+
+This file contains copies of the part of each release announcement
+that talks about the changes in that release. The text has been
+adapted and reformatted for the purposes of this file.
+
+Typically a release R consists of a pair of tarball files,
+tzcodeR.tar.gz and tzdataR.tar.gz. However, some releases (e.g.,
+code2010a, data2012c) consist of just one or the other tarball, and a
+few (e.g., code2012c-data2012d) have tarballs with mixed version
+numbers.
+
+Release time stamps are taken from the release's commit (for newer,
+git releases), from the newest file in the tarball (for older
+releases, where this info is available) or from the email announcing
+the release (if all else fails; these are marked with a time zone of
+-0000 and an "is missing!" comment).
+
+Earlier versions of the code and data were not announced on the tz
+list and are not summarized here.

+
+----- Time and date functions -----
+
+These time and date functions are upwards compatible with those of POSIX,
+an international standard for UNIX-like systems.
+As of this writing, the current edition of POSIX is:
+
+ The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7
+ IEEE Std 1003.1, 2013 Edition
+ <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/>
+
+POSIX has the following properties and limitations.
+
+* In POSIX, time display in a process is controlled by the
+ environment variable TZ. Unfortunately, the POSIX TZ string takes
+ a form that is hard to describe and is error-prone in practice.
+ Also, POSIX TZ strings can't deal with other (for example, Israeli)
+ daylight saving time rules, or situations where more than two
+ time zone abbreviations are used in an area.
+
+ The POSIX TZ string takes the following form:
+
+ stdoffset[dst[offset][,date[/time],date[/time]]]
+
+ where:
+
+ std and dst
+ are 3 or more characters specifying the standard
+ and daylight saving time (DST) zone names.
+ Starting with POSIX.1-2001, std and dst may also be
+ in a quoted form like "<UTC+10>"; this allows
+ "+" and "-" in the names.
+ offset
+ is of the form '[+-]hh:[mm[:ss]]' and specifies the
+ offset west of UT. 'hh' may be a single digit; 0<=hh<=24.
+ The default DST offset is one hour ahead of standard time.
+ date[/time],date[/time]
+ specifies the beginning and end of DST. If this is absent,
+ the system supplies its own rules for DST, and these can
+ differ from year to year; typically US DST rules are used.
+ time
+ takes the form 'hh:[mm[:ss]]' and defaults to 02:00.
+ This is the same format as the offset, except that a
+ leading '+' or '-' is not allowed.
+ date
+ takes one of the following forms:
+ Jn (1<=n<=365)
+ origin-1 day number not counting February 29
+ n (0<=n<=365)
+ origin-0 day number counting February 29 if present
+ Mm.n.d (0[Sunday]<=d<=6[Saturday], 1<=n<=5, 1<=m<=12)
+ for the dth day of week n of month m of the year,
+ where week 1 is the first week in which day d appears,
+ and '5' stands for the last week in which day d appears
+ (which may be either the 4th or 5th week).
+ Typically, this is the only useful form;
+ the n and Jn forms are rarely used.
+
+ Here is an example POSIX TZ string, for US Pacific time using rules
+ appropriate from 1987 through 2006:
+
+ TZ='PST8PDT,M4.1.0/02:00,M10.5.0/02:00'
+
+ This POSIX TZ string is hard to remember, and mishandles time stamps
+ before 1987 and after 2006. With this package you can use this
+ instead:
+
+ TZ='America/Los_Angeles'
+
+* POSIX does not define the exact meaning of TZ values like "EST5EDT".
+ Typically the current US DST rules are used to interpret such values,
+ but this means that the US DST rules are compiled into each program
+ that does time conversion. This means that when US time conversion
+ rules change (as in the United States in 1987), all programs that
+ do time conversion must be recompiled to ensure proper results.
+
+* In POSIX, there's no tamper-proof way for a process to learn the
+ system's best idea of local wall clock. (This is important for
+ applications that an administrator wants used only at certain times -
+ without regard to whether the user has fiddled the "TZ" environment
+ variable. While an administrator can "do everything in UTC" to get
+ around the problem, doing so is inconvenient and precludes handling
+ daylight saving time shifts - as might be required to limit phone
+ calls to off-peak hours.)
+
+* POSIX requires that systems ignore leap seconds.
+
+* The tz code attempts to support all the time_t implementations
+ allowed by POSIX. The time_t type represents a nonnegative count of
+ seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC, ignoring leap seconds.
+ In practice, time_t is usually a signed 64- or 32-bit integer; 32-bit
+ signed time_t values stop working after 2038-01-19 03:14:07 UTC, so
+ new implementations these days typically use a signed 64-bit integer.
+ Unsigned 32-bit integers are used on one or two platforms,
+ and 36-bit integers are also used occasionally.
+ Although earlier POSIX versions allowed time_t to be a
+ floating-point type, this was not supported by any practical
+ systems, and POSIX.1-2013 and the tz code both require time_t
+ to be an integer type.
+
+These are the extensions that have been made to the POSIX functions:
+
+* The "TZ" environment variable is used in generating the name of a file
+ from which time zone information is read (or is interpreted a la
+ POSIX); "TZ" is no longer constrained to be a three-letter time zone
+ name followed by a number of hours and an optional three-letter
+ daylight time zone name. The daylight saving time rules to be used
+ for a particular time zone are encoded in the time zone file;
+ the format of the file allows U.S., Australian, and other rules to be
+ encoded, and allows for situations where more than two time zone
+ abbreviations are used.
+
+ It was recognized that allowing the "TZ" environment variable to
+ take on values such as "America/New_York" might cause "old" programs
+ (that expect "TZ" to have a certain form) to operate incorrectly;
+ consideration was given to using some other environment variable
+ (for example, "TIMEZONE") to hold the string used to generate the
+ time zone information file name. In the end, however, it was decided
+ to continue using "TZ": it is widely used for time zone purposes;
+ separately maintaining both "TZ" and "TIMEZONE" seemed a nuisance;
+ and systems where "new" forms of "TZ" might cause problems can simply
+ use TZ values such as "EST5EDT" which can be used both by
+ "new" programs (a la POSIX) and "old" programs (as zone names and
+ offsets).
+
+* To handle places where more than two time zone abbreviations are used,
+ the functions "localtime" and "gmtime" set tzname[tmp->tm_isdst]
+ (where "tmp" is the value the function returns) to the time zone
+ abbreviation to be used. This differs from POSIX, where the elements
+ of tzname are only changed as a result of calls to tzset.
+
+* Since the "TZ" environment variable can now be used to control time
+ conversion, the "daylight" and "timezone" variables are no longer
+ needed. (These variables are defined and set by "tzset"; however, their
+ values will not be used by "localtime.")
+
+* The "localtime" function has been set up to deliver correct results
+ for near-minimum or near-maximum time_t values. (A comment in the
+ source code tells how to get compatibly wrong results).
+
+* A function "tzsetwall" has been added to arrange for the system's
+ best approximation to local wall clock time to be delivered by
+ subsequent calls to "localtime." Source code for portable
+ applications that "must" run on local wall clock time should call
+ "tzsetwall();" if such code is moved to "old" systems that don't
+ provide tzsetwall, you won't be able to generate an executable program.
+ (These time zone functions also arrange for local wall clock time to be
+ used if tzset is called - directly or indirectly - and there's no "TZ"
+ environment variable; portable applications should not, however, rely
+ on this behavior since it's not the way SVR2 systems behave.)
+
+* Negative time_t values are supported, on systems where time_t is signed.
+
+* These functions can account for leap seconds, thanks to Bradley White.
+
+Points of interest to folks with other systems:
+
+* This package is already part of many POSIX-compliant hosts,
+ including BSD, HP, Linux, Network Appliance, SCO, SGI, and Sun.
+ On such hosts, the primary use of this package
+ is to update obsolete time zone rule tables.
+ To do this, you may need to compile the time zone compiler
+ 'zic' supplied with this package instead of using the system 'zic',
+ since the format of zic's input changed slightly in late 1994,
+ and many vendors still do not support the new input format.
+
+* The UNIX Version 7 "timezone" function is not present in this package;
+ it's impossible to reliably map timezone's arguments (a "minutes west
+ of GMT" value and a "daylight saving time in effect" flag) to a
+ time zone abbreviation, and we refuse to guess.
+ Programs that in the past used the timezone function may now examine
+ tzname[localtime(&clock)->tm_isdst] to learn the correct time
+ zone abbreviation to use. Alternatively, use
+ localtime(&clock)->tm_zone if this has been enabled.
+
+* The 4.2BSD gettimeofday function is not used in this package.
+ This formerly let users obtain the current UTC offset and DST flag,
+ but this functionality was removed in later versions of BSD.
+
+* In SVR2, time conversion fails for near-minimum or near-maximum
+ time_t values when doing conversions for places that don't use UT.
+ This package takes care to do these conversions correctly.
+
+The functions that are conditionally compiled if STD_INSPIRED is defined
+should, at this point, be looked on primarily as food for thought. They are
+not in any sense "standard compatible" - some are not, in fact, specified in
+*any* standard. They do, however, represent responses of various authors to
+standardization proposals.
+
+Other time conversion proposals, in particular the one developed by folks at
+Hewlett Packard, offer a wider selection of functions that provide capabilities
+beyond those provided here. The absence of such functions from this package
+is not meant to discourage the development, standardization, or use of such
+functions. Rather, their absence reflects the decision to make this package
+contain valid extensions to POSIX, to ensure its broad acceptability. If
+more powerful time conversion functions can be standardized, so much the
+better.
+
+
+----- Scope of the tz database -----
+
+The tz database attempts to record the history and predicted future of
+all computer-based clocks that track civil time. To represent this
+data, the world is partitioned into regions whose clocks all agree
+about time stamps that occur after the somewhat-arbitrary cutoff point
+of the POSIX Epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC). For each such region,
+the database records all known clock transitions, and labels the region
+with a notable location. Although 1970 is a somewhat-arbitrary
+cutoff, there are significant challenges to moving the cutoff earlier
+even by a decade or two, due to the wide variety of local practices
+before computer timekeeping became prevalent.
+
+Clock transitions before 1970 are recorded for each such location,
+because most POSIX-compatible systems support negative time stamps and
+could misbehave if data entries were omitted for pre-1970 transitions.
+However, the database is not designed for and does not suffice for
+applications requiring accurate handling of all past times everywhere,
+as it would take far too much effort and guesswork to record all
+details of pre-1970 civil timekeeping.
+
+
+----- Accuracy of the tz database -----
+
+The tz database is not authoritative, and it surely has errors.
+Corrections are welcome and encouraged; see the file CONTRIBUTING.
+Users requiring authoritative data should consult national standards
+bodies and the references cited in the database's comments.
+
+Errors in the tz database arise from many sources:
+
+ * The tz database predicts future time stamps, and current predictions
+ will be incorrect after future governments change the rules.
+ For example, if today someone schedules a meeting for 13:00 next
+ October 1, Casablanca time, and tomorrow Morocco changes its
+ daylight saving rules, software can mess up after the rule change
+ if it blithely relies on conversions made before the change.
+
+ * The pre-1970 entries in this database cover only a tiny sliver of how
+ clocks actually behaved; the vast majority of the necessary
+ information was lost or never recorded. Thousands more zones would
+ be needed if the tz database's scope were extended to cover even
+ just the known or guessed history of standard time; for example,
+ the current single entry for France would need to split into dozens
+ of entries, perhaps hundreds.
+
+ * Most of the pre-1970 data entries come from unreliable sources, often
+ astrology books that lack citations and whose compilers evidently
+ invented entries when the true facts were unknown, without
+ reporting which entries were known and which were invented.
+ These books often contradict each other or give implausible entries,
+ and on the rare occasions when they are checked they are
+ typically found to be incorrect.
+
+ * For the UK the tz database relies on years of first-class work done by
+ Joseph Myers and others; see <http://www.polyomino.org.uk/british-time/>.
+ Other countries are not done nearly as well.
+
+ * Sometimes, different people in the same city would maintain clocks
+ that differed significantly. Railway time was used by railroad
+ companies (which did not always agree with each other),
+ church-clock time was used for birth certificates, etc.
+ Often this was merely common practice, but sometimes it was set by law.
+ For example, from 1891 to 1911 the UT offset in France was legally
+ 0:09:21 outside train stations and 0:04:21 inside.
+
+ * Although a named location in the tz database stands for the
+ containing region, its pre-1970 data entries are often accurate for
+ only a small subset of that region. For example, Europe/London
+ stands for the United Kingdom, but its pre-1847 times are valid
+ only for locations that have London's exact meridian, and its 1847
+ transition to GMT is known to be valid only for the L&NW and the
+ Caledonian railways.
+
+ * The tz database does not record the earliest time for which a zone's
+ data entries are thereafter valid for every location in the region.
+ For example, Europe/London is valid for all locations in its
+ region after GMT was made the standard time, but the date of
+ standardization (1880-08-02) is not in the tz database, other than
+ in commentary. For many zones the earliest time of validity is
+ unknown.
+
+ * The tz database does not record a region's boundaries, and in many
+ cases the boundaries are not known. For example, the zone
+ America/Kentucky/Louisville represents a region around the city of
+ Louisville, the boundaries of which are unclear.
+
+ * Changes that are modeled as instantaneous transitions in the tz
+ database were often spread out over hours, days, or even decades.
+
+ * Even if the time is specified by law, locations sometimes
+ deliberately flout the law.
+
+ * Early timekeeping practices, even assuming perfect clocks, were
+ often not specified to the accuracy that the tz database requires.
+
+ * Sometimes historical timekeeping was specified more precisely
+ than what the tz database can handle. For example, from 1909 to
+ 1937 Netherlands clocks were legally UT+00:19:32.13, but the tz
+ database cannot represent the fractional second.
+
+ * Even when all the timestamp transitions recorded by the tz database
+ are correct, the tz rules that generate them may not faithfully
+ reflect the historical rules. For example, from 1922 until World
+ War II the UK moved clocks forward the day following the third
+ Saturday in April unless that was Easter, in which case it moved
+ clocks forward the previous Sunday. Because the tz database has no
+ way to specify Easter, these exceptional years are entered as
+ separate tz Rule lines, even though the legal rules did not change.
+
+ * The tz database models pre-standard time using the Gregorian
+ calendar and local mean time (LMT), but many people used other
+ calendars and other timescales. For example, the Roman Empire used
+ the Julian calendar, and had 12 varying-length daytime hours with a
+ non-hour-based system at night.
+
+ * Early clocks were less reliable, and data entries do not represent
+ this unreliability.
+
+ * As for leap seconds, civil time was not based on atomic time before
+ 1972, and we don't know the history of earth's rotation accurately
+ enough to map SI seconds to historical solar time to more than
+ about one-hour accuracy. See: Morrison LV, Stephenson FR.
+ Historical values of the Earth's clock error Delta T and the
+ calculation of eclipses. J Hist Astron. 2004;35:327-36
+ <http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/2004JHA....35..327M>;
+ Historical values of the Earth's clock error. J Hist Astron. 2005;36:339
+ <http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/2005JHA....36..339M>.
+
+ * The relationship between POSIX time (that is, UTC but ignoring leap
+ seconds) and UTC is not agreed upon after 1972. Although the POSIX
+ clock officially stops during an inserted leap second, at least one
+ proposed standard has it jumping back a second instead; and in
+ practice POSIX clocks more typically either progress glacially during
+ a leap second, or are slightly slowed while near a leap second.
+
+ * The tz database does not represent how uncertain its information is.
+ Ideally it would contain information about when data entries are
+ incomplete or dicey. Partial temporal knowledge is a field of
+ active research, though, and it's not clear how to apply it here.
+
+In short, many, perhaps most, of the tz database's pre-1970 and future
+time stamps are either wrong or misleading. Any attempt to pass the
+tz database off as the definition of time should be unacceptable to
+anybody who cares about the facts. In particular, the tz database's
+LMT offsets should not be considered meaningful, and should not prompt
+creation of zones merely because two locations differ in LMT or
+transitioned to standard time at different dates.
+
+
+----- Names of time zone rule files -----
+
+The time zone rule file naming conventions attempt to strike a balance
+among the following goals:
+
+ * Uniquely identify every national region where clocks have all
+ agreed since 1970. This is essential for the intended use: static
+ clocks keeping local civil time.
+
+ * Indicate to humans as to where that region is. This simplifies use.
+
+ * Be robust in the presence of political changes. This reduces the
+ number of updates and backward-compatibility hacks. For example,
+ names of countries are ordinarily not used, to avoid
+ incompatibilities when countries change their name
+ (e.g. Zaire->Congo) or when locations change countries
+ (e.g. Hong Kong from UK colony to China).
+
+ * Be portable to a wide variety of implementations.
+ This promotes use of the technology.
+
+ * Use a consistent naming convention over the entire world.
+ This simplifies both use and maintenance.
+
+This naming convention is not intended for use by inexperienced users
+to select TZ values by themselves (though they can of course examine
+and reuse existing settings). Distributors should provide
+documentation and/or a simple selection interface that explains the
+names; see the 'tzselect' program supplied with this distribution for
+one example.
+
+Names normally have the form AREA/LOCATION, where AREA is the name
+of a continent or ocean, and LOCATION is the name of a specific
+location within that region. North and South America share the same
+area, 'America'. Typical names are 'Africa/Cairo', 'America/New_York',
+and 'Pacific/Honolulu'.
+
+Here are the general rules used for choosing location names,
+in decreasing order of importance:
+
+ Use only valid POSIX file name components (i.e., the parts of
+ names other than '/'). Do not use the file name
+ components '.' and '..'. Within a file name component,
+ use only ASCII letters, '.', '-' and '_'. Do not use
+ digits, as that might create an ambiguity with POSIX
+ TZ strings. A file name component must not exceed 14
+ characters or start with '-'. E.g., prefer 'Brunei'
+ to 'Bandar_Seri_Begawan'. Exceptions: see the discussion
+ of legacy names below.
+ A name must not be empty, or contain '//', or start or end with '/'.
+ Do not use names that differ only in case. Although the reference
+ implementation is case-sensitive, some other implementations
+ are not, and they would mishandle names differing only in case.
+ If one name A is an initial prefix of another name AB (ignoring case),
+ then B must not start with '/', as a regular file cannot have
+ the same name as a directory in POSIX. For example,
+ 'America/New_York' precludes 'America/New_York/Bronx'.
+ Uninhabited regions like the North Pole and Bouvet Island
+ do not need locations, since local time is not defined there.
+ There should typically be at least one name for each ISO 3166-1
+ officially assigned two-letter code for an inhabited country
+ or territory.
+ If all the clocks in a region have agreed since 1970,
+ don't bother to include more than one location
+ even if subregions' clocks disagreed before 1970.
+ Otherwise these tables would become annoyingly large.
+ If a name is ambiguous, use a less ambiguous alternative;
+ e.g. many cities are named San José and Georgetown, so
+ prefer 'Costa_Rica' to 'San_Jose' and 'Guyana' to 'Georgetown'.
+ Keep locations compact. Use cities or small islands, not countries
+ or regions, so that any future time zone changes do not split
+ locations into different time zones. E.g. prefer 'Paris'
+ to 'France', since France has had multiple time zones.
+ Use mainstream English spelling, e.g. prefer 'Rome' to 'Roma', and
+ prefer 'Athens' to the Greek 'Αθήνα' or the Romanized 'Athína'.
+ The POSIX file name restrictions encourage this rule.
+ Use the most populous among locations in a zone,
+ e.g. prefer 'Shanghai' to 'Beijing'. Among locations with
+ similar populations, pick the best-known location,
+ e.g. prefer 'Rome' to 'Milan'.
+ Use the singular form, e.g. prefer 'Canary' to 'Canaries'.
+ Omit common suffixes like '_Islands' and '_City', unless that
+ would lead to ambiguity. E.g. prefer 'Cayman' to
+ 'Cayman_Islands' and 'Guatemala' to 'Guatemala_City',
+ but prefer 'Mexico_City' to 'Mexico' because the country
+ of Mexico has several time zones.
+ Use '_' to represent a space.
+ Omit '.' from abbreviations in names, e.g. prefer 'St_Helena'
+ to 'St._Helena'.
+ Do not change established names if they only marginally
+ violate the above rules. For example, don't change
+ the existing name 'Rome' to 'Milan' merely because
+ Milan's population has grown to be somewhat greater
+ than Rome's.
+ If a name is changed, put its old spelling in the 'backward' file.
+ This means old spellings will continue to work.
+
+The file 'zone1970.tab' lists geographical locations used to name time
+zone rule files. It is intended to be an exhaustive list of names
+for geographic regions as described above; this is a subset of the
+names in the data. Although a 'zone1970.tab' location's longitude
+corresponds to its LMT offset with one hour for every 15 degrees east
+longitude, this relationship is not exact.
+
+Older versions of this package used a different naming scheme,
+and these older names are still supported.
+See the file 'backward' for most of these older names
+(e.g., 'US/Eastern' instead of 'America/New_York').
+The other old-fashioned names still supported are
+'WET', 'CET', 'MET', and 'EET' (see the file 'europe').
+
+Older versions of this package defined legacy names that are
+incompatible with the first rule of location names, but which are
+still supported. These legacy names are mostly defined in the file
+'etcetera'. Also, the file 'backward' defines the legacy names
+'GMT0', 'GMT-0', 'GMT+0' and 'Canada/East-Saskatchewan', and the file
+'northamerica' defines the legacy names 'EST5EDT', 'CST6CDT',
+'MST7MDT', and 'PST8PDT'.
+
+Excluding 'backward' should not affect the other data. If
+'backward' is excluded, excluding 'etcetera' should not affect the
+remaining data.
+
+
+----- Time zone abbreviations -----
+
+When this package is installed, it generates time zone abbreviations
+like 'EST' to be compatible with human tradition and POSIX.
+Here are the general rules used for choosing time zone abbreviations,
+in decreasing order of importance:
+
+ Use abbreviations that consist of three or more ASCII letters.
+ Previous editions of this database also used characters like
+ ' ' and '?', but these characters have a special meaning to
+ the shell and cause commands like
+ set `date`
+ to have unexpected effects.
+ Previous editions of this rule required upper-case letters,
+ but the Congressman who introduced Chamorro Standard Time
+ preferred "ChST", so the rule has been relaxed.
+
+ This rule guarantees that all abbreviations could have
+ been specified by a POSIX TZ string. POSIX
+ requires at least three characters for an
+ abbreviation. POSIX through 2000 says that an abbreviation
+ cannot start with ':', and cannot contain ',', '-',
+ '+', NUL, or a digit. POSIX from 2001 on changes this
+ rule to say that an abbreviation can contain only '-', '+',
+ and alphanumeric characters from the portable character set
+ in the current locale. To be portable to both sets of
+ rules, an abbreviation must therefore use only ASCII
+ letters.
+
+ Use abbreviations that are in common use among English-speakers,
+ e.g. 'EST' for Eastern Standard Time in North America.
+ We assume that applications translate them to other languages
+ as part of the normal localization process; for example,
+ a French application might translate 'EST' to 'HNE'.
+
+ For zones whose times are taken from a city's longitude, use the
+ traditional xMT notation, e.g. 'PMT' for Paris Mean Time.
+ The only name like this in current use is 'GMT'.
+
+ If there is no common English abbreviation, abbreviate the English
+ translation of the usual phrase used by native speakers.
+ If this is not available or is a phrase mentioning the country
+ (e.g. "Cape Verde Time"), then:
+
+ When a country is identified with a single or principal zone,
+ append 'T' to the country's ISO code, e.g. 'CVT' for
+ Cape Verde Time. For summer time append 'ST';
+ for double summer time append 'DST'; etc.
+ Otherwise, take the first three letters of an English place
+ name identifying each zone and append 'T', 'ST', etc.
+ as before; e.g. 'VLAST' for VLAdivostok Summer Time.
+
+ Use 'LMT' for local mean time of locations before the introduction
+ of standard time; see "Scope of the tz database".
+
+ Use UT (with time zone abbreviation 'zzz') for locations while
+ uninhabited. The 'zzz' mnemonic is that these locations are,
+ in some sense, asleep.
+
+Application writers should note that these abbreviations are ambiguous
+in practice: e.g. 'CST' has a different meaning in China than
+it does in the United States. In new applications, it's often better
+to use numeric UT offsets like '-0600' instead of time zone
+abbreviations like 'CST'; this avoids the ambiguity.
+
+
+----- Calendrical issues -----
+
+Calendrical issues are a bit out of scope for a time zone database,
+but they indicate the sort of problems that we would run into if we
+extended the time zone database further into the past. An excellent
+resource in this area is Nachum Dershowitz and Edward M. Reingold,
+Calendrical Calculations: Third Edition, Cambridge University Press (2008)
+<http://emr.cs.iit.edu/home/reingold/calendar-book/third-edition/>.

+Date: 1996-07-06
+
+In 1700, Denmark made the transition from Julian to Gregorian. Sweden
+decided to *start* a transition in 1700 as well, but rather than have one of
+those unsightly calendar gaps :-), they simply decreed that the next leap
+year after 1696 would be in 1744 - putting the whole country on a calendar
+different from both Julian and Gregorian for a period of 40 years.
+
+However, in 1704 something went wrong and the plan was not carried through;
+they did, after all, have a leap year that year. And one in 1708. In 1712
+they gave it up and went back to Julian, putting 30 days in February that
+year!...
+
+Then in 1753, Sweden made the transition to Gregorian in the usual manner,
+getting there only 13 years behind the original schedule.
+
+(A previous posting of this story was challenged, and Swedish readers
+produced the following references to support it: "Tideräkning och historia"
+by Natanael Beckman (1924) and "Tid, en bok om tideräkning och

+----- Time and time zones on Mars -----
+
+Some people have adjusted their work schedules to fit Mars time.
+Dozens of special Mars watches were built for Jet Propulsion
+Laboratory workers who kept Mars time during the Mars Exploration
+Rovers mission (2004). These timepieces look like normal Seikos and
+Citizens but use Mars seconds rather than terrestrial seconds.
+
+A Mars solar day is called a "sol" and has a mean period equal to
+about 24 hours 39 minutes 35.244 seconds in terrestrial time. It is
+divided into a conventional 24-hour clock, so each Mars second equals
+about 1.02749125 terrestrial seconds.
+
+The prime meridian of Mars goes through the center of the crater
+Airy-0, named in honor of the British astronomer who built the
+Greenwich telescope that defines Earth's prime meridian. Mean solar
+time on the Mars prime meridian is called Mars Coordinated Time (MTC).
+
+Each landed mission on Mars has adopted a different reference for
+solar time keeping, so there is no real standard for Mars time zones.
+For example, the Mars Exploration Rover project (2004) defined two
+time zones "Local Solar Time A" and "Local Solar Time B" for its two
+missions, each zone designed so that its time equals local true solar
+time at approximately the middle of the nominal mission. Such a "time
+zone" is not particularly suited for any application other than the
+mission itself.
+
+Many calendars have been proposed for Mars, but none have achieved
+wide acceptance. Astronomers often use Mars Sol Date (MSD) which is a
+sequential count of Mars solar days elapsed since about 1873-12-29
+12:00 GMT.
+
+The tz database does not currently support Mars time, but it is
+documented here in the hopes that support will be added eventually.

+#
+# From Lester Caine (2013-09-04):
+# The Isle of Man legislation is now on-line at
+# <http://www.legislation.gov.im>, starting with the original Statutory
+# Time Act in 1883 and including additional confirmation of some of
+# the dates of the 'Summer Time' orders originating at
+# Westminster. There is a little uncertainty as to the starting date
+# of the first summer time in 1916 which may have be announced a
+# couple of days late. There is still a substantial number of
+# documents to work through, but it is thought that every GB change
+# was also implemented on the island.
