DST law changes in Turkey. Historical corrections for America/Los_Angeles, Europe/Kirov, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Samara, and Europe/Ulyanovsk. Rename Asia/Rangoon to Asia/Yangon, with a backward compatibility link. The IANA crew continue their campaign to replace invented time zone abbrevations with numeric GMT offsets. This update changes numerous zones in Antarctica and the former Soviet Union, for instance Antarctica/Casey now reports "+08" not "AWST" in the pg_timezone_names view. I kept these abbreviations in the tznames/ data files, however, so that we will still accept them for input. (We may want to start trimming those files someday, but today is not that day.) An exception is that since IANA no longer claims that "AMT" is in use in Armenia for GMT+4, I replaced it in the Default file with GMT-4, corresponding to Amazon Time which is in use in South America. It may be that that meaning is also invented and IANA will drop it in a future update; but for now, it seems silly to give pride of place to a meaning not traceable to IANA over one that is.

# These entries are mostly present for historical reasons, so that
|
|
# people in areas not otherwise covered by the tz files could "zic -l"
|
|
# to a time zone that was right for their area. These days, the
|
|
# tz files cover almost all the inhabited world, and the only practical
|
|
# need now for the entries that are not on UTC are for ships at sea
|
|
# that cannot use POSIX TZ settings.
|
|
|
|
# Starting with POSIX 1003.1-2001, the entries below are all
|
|
# unnecessary as settings for the TZ environment variable. E.g.,
|
|
# instead of TZ='Etc/GMT+4' one can use the POSIX setting TZ='<-04>+4'.
|
|
#
|
|
# Do not use a POSIX TZ setting like TZ='GMT+4', which is four hours
|
|
# behind GMT but uses the completely misleading abbreviation "GMT".

# We want this to work even on installations that omit the other older names.
