For more, please see # the file CONTRIBUTING in the tz distribution. # From Paul Eggert (2014-10-31): # This file contains data outside the normal scope of the tz database, # in that its zones do not differ from normal tz zones after 1970. # Links in this file point to zones in this file, superseding links in # the file 'backward'. # Although zones in this file may be of some use for analyzing # pre-1970 time stamps, they are less reliable, cover only a tiny # sliver of the pre-1970 era, and cannot feasibly be improved to cover # most of the era. Because the zones are out of normal scope for the # database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of # the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or # replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they # differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. # Unless otherwise specified, the source for data through 1990 is: # Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). # Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources. # This file is not intended to be compiled standalone, as it # assumes rules from other files. In the tz distribution, use # 'make posix_packrat' to compile this file. # Zones are sorted by zone name. Each zone is preceded by the # name of the country that the zone is in, along with any other # commentary and rules associated with the entry. # # As explained in the zic man page, the zone columns are: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] # Ethiopia # From Paul Eggert (2014-07-31): # Like the Swahili of Kenya and Tanzania, many Ethiopians keep a # 12-hour clock starting at our 06:00, so their "8 o'clock" is our # 02:00 or 14:00. Keep this in mind when you ask the time in Amharic. # # Shanks & Pottenger write that Ethiopia had six narrowly-spaced time # zones between 1870 and 1890, that they merged to 38E50 (2:35:20) in # 1890, and that they switched to 3:00 on 1936-05-05. Perhaps 38E50 # was for Adis Dera. Quite likely the Shanks data entries are wrong # anyway.

For more, please see # the file CONTRIBUTING in the tz distribution. # From Paul Eggert (2014-10-31): # This file contains data outside the normal scope of the tz database, # in that its zones do not differ from normal tz zones after 1970. # Links in this file point to zones in this file, superseding links in # the file 'backward'. # Although zones in this file may be of some use for analyzing # pre-1970 time stamps, they are less reliable, cover only a tiny # sliver of the pre-1970 era, and cannot feasibly be improved to cover # most of the era. Because the zones are out of normal scope for the # database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of # the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or # replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they # differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. # Unless otherwise specified, the source for data through 1990 is: # Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). # Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources. # This file is not intended to be compiled standalone, as it # assumes rules from other files. In the tz distribution, use # 'make posix_packrat' to compile this file. # Zones are sorted by zone name. Each zone is preceded by the # name of the country that the zone is in, along with any other # commentary and rules associated with the entry. # # As explained in the zic man page, the zone columns are: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] # Ethiopia # From Paul Eggert (2014-07-31): # Like the Swahili of Kenya and Tanzania, many Ethiopians keep a # 12-hour clock starting at our 06:00, so their "8 o'clock" is our # 02:00 or 14:00. Keep this in mind when you ask the time in Amharic. # # Shanks & Pottenger write that Ethiopia had six narrowly-spaced time # zones between 1870 and 1890, that they merged to 38E50 (2:35:20) in # 1890, and that they switched to 3:00 on 1936-05-05. Perhaps 38E50 # was for Adis Dera. Quite likely the Shanks data entries are wrong # anyway.

For more, please see # the file CONTRIBUTING in the tz distribution. # From Paul Eggert (2014-10-31): # This file contains data outside the normal scope of the tz database, # in that its zones do not differ from normal tz zones after 1970. # Links in this file point to zones in this file, superseding links in # the file 'backward'. # Although zones in this file may be of some use for analyzing # pre-1970 time stamps, they are less reliable, cover only a tiny # sliver of the pre-1970 era, and cannot feasibly be improved to cover # most of the era. Because the zones are out of normal scope for the # database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of # the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or # replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they # differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. # Unless otherwise specified, the source for data through 1990 is: # Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). # Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources. # This file is not intended to be compiled standalone, as it # assumes rules from other files. In the tz distribution, use # 'make posix_packrat' to compile this file. # Zones are sorted by zone name. Each zone is preceded by the # name of the country that the zone is in, along with any other # commentary and rules associated with the entry. # # As explained in the zic man page, the zone columns are: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] # Ethiopia # From Paul Eggert (2014-07-31): # Like the Swahili of Kenya and Tanzania, many Ethiopians keep a # 12-hour clock starting at our 06:00, so their "8 o'clock" is our # 02:00 or 14:00. Keep this in mind when you ask the time in Amharic. # # Shanks & Pottenger write that Ethiopia had six narrowly-spaced time # zones between 1870 and 1890, that they merged to 38E50 (2:35:20) in # 1890, and that they switched to 3:00 on 1936-05-05. Perhaps 38E50 # was for Adis Dera. Quite likely the Shanks data entries are wrong # anyway.

Because the zones are out of normal scope for the # database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of # the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or # replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they # differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. # Unless otherwise specified, the source for the data is the following, # which does not itself cite sources and is often wrong: # # Thomas G.

Some "issues" were found with them that caused the relatively quick updates... The updates are from the previous version (2017c) to the current one (2018c) - that 2018a & 2018b intervened is best forgotten... (changes in 2018a that were corrected (2018b) or reverted (2018c) are not mentioned). Briefly: Sao Tome and Principe (An island nation off west coast of Equatorial Africa) switched from +00 to +01. Brazil's DST will now start on November's first Sunday. Use Debian-style installation locations, instead of 4.3BSD-style. (this does not affect NetBSD, we do not use the tzdata Makefile) Changes to past and future time stamps Sao Tome and Principe switched from +00 to +01 on 2018-01-01 at 01:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen and Michael Deckers.) Changes to future time stamps Starting in 2018 southern Brazil will begin DST on November's first Sunday instead of October's third Sunday. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes to past time stamps Japanese DST transitions (1948-1951) were Sundays at 00:00, not Saturdays or Sundays at 02:00. (Thanks to Takayuki Nikai.) A discrepancy of 4 s in timestamps before 1931 in South Sudan has been corrected. The 'backzone' and 'zone.tab' files did not agree with the 'africa' and 'zone1970.tab' files. (Problem reported by Michael Deckers.) The abbreviation invented for Bolivia Summer Time (1931-2) is now BST instead of BOST, to be more consistent with the convention used for Latvian Summer Time (1918-9) and for British Summer Time. @ text @d148 5 a177 1 # From Paul Eggert (2018-02-16): d180 2 a181 1 # (see Europe/Lisbon) with the date that it took effect. d184 1 a184 1 0:52:04 - LMT 1911 Dec 31 23:00u # Luanda MT? d245 5 d284 1 a284 1 -5:07:10 - KMT 1912 Feb # Kingston Mean Time a286 10 # United States # # From Paul Eggert (2018-03-18): # America/Chillicothe would be tricky, as it was a city of two-timers: # "To prevent a constant mixup at Chillicothe, caused by the courthouse # clock running on central time and the city running on 'daylight saving' # time, a third hand was added to the dial of the courthouse clock." # -- Ohio news in brief.

Because the zones are out of normal scope for the # database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of # the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or # replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they # differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. # Unless otherwise specified, the source for the data is the following, # which does not itself cite sources and is often wrong: # # Thomas G.

Various adjustments to some historical conversions (several for Uruguay (1920 .. 1990), one fpr Enderbury and Kiritimati (1994/5), one for Portugal and colonies (1912) and Jamaica and Turks & Caicos (pre 1913)). Summary of changes in tzdata2017c: Northern Cyprus switches from +03 to +02/+03 on 2017-10-29. Fiji ends DST 2018-01-14, not 2018-01-21. Namibia switches from +01/+02 to +02 on 2018-04-01. Sudan switches from +03 to +02 on 2017-11-01. Tonga likely switches from +13/+14 to +13 on 2017-11-05. Turks & Caicos switches from -04 to -05/-04 on 2018-11-04. Some corrections to (mostly ancient) historical data. Summary of changes in tzdata2018c (2018-01-22 23:00:44 -0800): Summary of changes in tzdata2018b (2018-01-17 23:24:48 -0800): Summary of changes in tzdata2018a (2018-01-12 22:29:21 -0800): 2018a and 2018b were (kind of) released, but never announced. Some "issues" were found with them that caused the relatively quick updates... The updates are from the previous version (2017c) to the current one (2018c) - that 2018a & 2018b intervened is best forgotten... (changes in 2018a that were corrected (2018b) or reverted (2018c) are not mentioned). Briefly: Sao Tome and Principe (An island nation off west coast of Equatorial Africa) switched from +00 to +01. Brazil's DST will now start on November's first Sunday. Use Debian-style installation locations, instead of 4.3BSD-style. (this does not affect NetBSD, we do not use the tzdata Makefile) Changes to past and future time stamps Sao Tome and Principe switched from +00 to +01 on 2018-01-01 at 01:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen and Michael Deckers.) Changes to future time stamps Starting in 2018 southern Brazil will begin DST on November's first Sunday instead of October's third Sunday. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes to past time stamps Japanese DST transitions (1948-1951) were Sundays at 00:00, not Saturdays or Sundays at 02:00. (Thanks to Takayuki Nikai.) A discrepancy of 4 s in timestamps before 1931 in South Sudan has been corrected. The 'backzone' and 'zone.tab' files did not agree with the 'africa' and 'zone1970.tab' files. (Problem reported by Michael Deckers.) The abbreviation invented for Bolivia Summer Time (1931-2) is now BST instead of BOST, to be more consistent with the convention used for Latvian Summer Time (1918-9) and for British Summer Time. @ text @d148 5 a177 1 # From Paul Eggert (2018-02-16): d180 2 a181 1 # (see Europe/Lisbon) with the date that it took effect. d184 1 a184 1 0:52:04 - LMT 1911 Dec 31 23:00u # Luanda MT? d245 5 d284 1 a284 1 -5:07:10 - KMT 1912 Feb # Kingston Mean Time a286 10 # United States # # From Paul Eggert (2018-03-18): # America/Chillicothe would be tricky, as it was a city of two-timers: # "To prevent a constant mixup at Chillicothe, caused by the courthouse # clock running on central time and the city running on 'daylight saving' # time, a third hand was added to the dial of the courthouse clock." # -- Ohio news in brief.

For more, please see # the file CONTRIBUTING in the tz distribution. # From Paul Eggert (2014-08-12): # This file contains data outside the normal scope of the tz database, # in that its zones do not differ from normal tz zones after 1970. # Links in this file point to zones in this file, superseding links in # the file 'backward'. # Although zones in this file may be of some use for analyzing # pre-1970 time stamps, they are less reliable, cover only a tiny # sliver of the pre-1970 era, and cannot feasibly be improved to cover # most of the era. Because the zones are out of normal scope for the # database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of # the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or # replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they # differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. # Unless otherwise specified, the source for the data is the following, # which does not itself cite sources and is often wrong: # # Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). # This file is not intended to be compiled standalone, as it # assumes rules from other files. In the tz distribution, use # 'make posix_packrat' to compile this file. # Zones are sorted by zone name. Each zone is preceded by the # name of the country that the zone is in, along with any other # commentary and rules associated with the entry. # # As explained in the zic man page, the zone columns are: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] # Mali (southern) Zone Africa/Bamako -0:32:00 - LMT 1912 0:00 - GMT 1934 Feb 26 -1:00 - WAT 1960 Jun 20 0:00 - GMT # Central African Republic Zone Africa/Bangui 1:14:20 - LMT 1912 1:00 - WAT # Gambia Zone Africa/Banjul -1:06:36 - LMT 1912 -1:06:36 - BMT 1935 # Banjul Mean Time -1:00 - WAT 1964 0:00 - GMT # Republic of the Congo Zone Africa/Brazzaville 1:01:08 - LMT 1912 1:00 - WAT # Guinea Zone Africa/Conakry -0:54:52 - LMT 1912 0:00 - GMT 1934 Feb 26 -1:00 - WAT 1960 0:00 - GMT # Senegal Zone Africa/Dakar -1:09:44 - LMT 1912 -1:00 - WAT 1941 Jun 0:00 - GMT # Cameroon # Whitman says they switched to 1:00 in 1920; go with Shanks & Pottenger.

Various adjustments to some historical conversions (several for Uruguay (1920 .. 1990), one fpr Enderbury and Kiritimati (1994/5), one for Portugal and colonies (1912) and Jamaica and Turks & Caicos (pre 1913)). Summary of changes in tzdata2017c: Northern Cyprus switches from +03 to +02/+03 on 2017-10-29. Fiji ends DST 2018-01-14, not 2018-01-21. Namibia switches from +01/+02 to +02 on 2018-04-01. Sudan switches from +03 to +02 on 2017-11-01. Tonga likely switches from +13/+14 to +13 on 2017-11-05. Turks & Caicos switches from -04 to -05/-04 on 2018-11-04. Some corrections to (mostly ancient) historical data. Summary of changes in tzdata2018c (2018-01-22 23:00:44 -0800): Summary of changes in tzdata2018b (2018-01-17 23:24:48 -0800): Summary of changes in tzdata2018a (2018-01-12 22:29:21 -0800): 2018a and 2018b were (kind of) released, but never announced. Some "issues" were found with them that caused the relatively quick updates... The updates are from the previous version (2017c) to the current one (2018c) - that 2018a & 2018b intervened is best forgotten... (changes in 2018a that were corrected (2018b) or reverted (2018c) are not mentioned). Briefly: Sao Tome and Principe (An island nation off west coast of Equatorial Africa) switched from +00 to +01. Brazil's DST will now start on November's first Sunday. Use Debian-style installation locations, instead of 4.3BSD-style. (this does not affect NetBSD, we do not use the tzdata Makefile) Changes to past and future time stamps Sao Tome and Principe switched from +00 to +01 on 2018-01-01 at 01:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen and Michael Deckers.) Changes to future time stamps Starting in 2018 southern Brazil will begin DST on November's first Sunday instead of October's third Sunday. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes to past time stamps Japanese DST transitions (1948-1951) were Sundays at 00:00, not Saturdays or Sundays at 02:00. (Thanks to Takayuki Nikai.) A discrepancy of 4 s in timestamps before 1931 in South Sudan has been corrected. The 'backzone' and 'zone.tab' files did not agree with the 'africa' and 'zone1970.tab' files. (Problem reported by Michael Deckers.) The abbreviation invented for Bolivia Summer Time (1931-2) is now BST instead of BOST, to be more consistent with the convention used for Latvian Summer Time (1918-9) and for British Summer Time. @ text @d148 5 a177 1 # From Paul Eggert (2018-02-16): d180 2 a181 1 # (see Europe/Lisbon) with the date that it took effect. d184 1 a184 1 0:52:04 - LMT 1911 Dec 31 23:00u # Luanda MT? d245 5 d284 1 a284 1 -5:07:10 - KMT 1912 Feb # Kingston Mean Time a286 10 # United States # # From Paul Eggert (2018-03-18): # America/Chillicothe would be tricky, as it was a city of two-timers: # "To prevent a constant mixup at Chillicothe, caused by the courthouse # clock running on central time and the city running on 'daylight saving' # time, a third hand was added to the dial of the courthouse clock." # -- Ohio news in brief.
