Amsterdam timezone prior to 1937 incorrect?
by Loek Engels Sept. 6, 2022

Sept. 6, 2022

Hi, Between 2022a an b the timezone info for Europe/Amstedam is removed: Z Europe/Amsterdam 0:19:32 - LMT 1835 The timezone info for Brussels around that date differs from Amsterdams timezone info. Determining the timezone information for dates around that period on my Linux system in python returns since the latest update an offset of 0 minutes as opposed to the 19 minutes previously. Is the removal for this timezone information intentional or a bug? Regards, Loek

Mexico may eliminate DST next year- except parts of some northern states
by wtz＠worldtimezone.com Sept. 2, 2022

Sept. 2, 2022

According to some news published on Wednesday, July 6, 2022 Mexico may eliminate DST next year- except parts of some northern states. "AMLO sends bill to eliminate daylight saving; Mexico to return to 'God's time'" https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/amlo-sends-bill-to-eliminate-daylight-savi… https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/mexico-president-presents-bill-elimi… "Mexico president presents bill to eliminate daylight saving time" "It's likely that the clocks won't change next year in most states" "The bill only requires a simple majority to pass the federal legislature, meaning that it is likely to become law. With the support of its allies, the ruling Morena party commands a majority in both the lower and upper houses. Energy Minister Rocío Nahle and Health Minister Jorge Alcocer appeared at the president's morning press conference on Tuesday to present arguments in favor of getting rid of the twice-a-year time change...... ..................... However, God's clock and health worries may not apply in parts of some northern states where clock changes have been synchronized with states in the southern U.S. to facilitate cross-border trade and other connections. Energy Minister Nahle said on Tuesday that there would continue to be exceptions in some northern border municipalities." Regards, WorldTimeZone.com team

Canonica and non-canonical timezone question
by Andriy Hromyak Aug. 30, 2022

Aug. 30, 2022

Hello and good day I have posted a question about a problem I am dealing with here: https://github.com/moment/moment-timezone/issues/828#issuecomment-1228548097 could you please assist on providing info on how we can distinguish canonical and non-canonical timezones. Some services do not allow non-canonical timezones yet lib we use provide some time non-canonical ones. so we need way not to receive non-canonical timezones or have marker that we can know that and maybe you can provide the best racice way to map it to canonical. best regards -- Hromyak Andriy | Lead software developer andriy.hromyak(a)visiquate.com

Re: [tz] No time zone on Solaris servers
by Paul Eggert Aug. 26, 2022

Aug. 26, 2022

On 8/26/22 10:06, W CUI wrote: > We are running 64-bit Solaris as showing from the "isainfo -v" output. Fine, but Solaris 10 /usr/bin/date is a 32-bit executable and is dynamically linked to a 32-bit C library /lib/libc.so.1 that is reading your TZif files. Presumably your "isainfo -v" outputs something like this: 64-bit sparcv9 applications vis2 vis 32-bit sparc applications vis2 vis v8plus div32 mul32 and the last two lines are what matter here. I expect that 64-bit Solaris 10 apps don't have this problem. To find out whether I'm right, you can run '/usr/bin/sparcv9/ls -l' on a new file and look at the resulting timestamp. Regardless, if this issue is a real problem for you then it's time to file a bug report with Oracle (you can tell them I sent you :-). And in the meantime you can get by with 'zic -b fat'.

No time zone on Solaris servers
by W CUI Aug. 25, 2022

Aug. 25, 2022

Hi list, We downloaded tzdb2022c and compiled it on a Solaris 10 server with TOPDIR=/newtz and other default config parameters. After compiling is finished, the zoneinfo directory is copied to an other Solaris server, then the date command does not show any time zone on the host. It seems the server is at UTC time zone. Can anybody point me on how to fix it? Thank you very much! Wei Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone

Western Australia's continuing argument over DST

Premier Mark McGowan reinforced the dismissal late yesterday, confirming the government would look to "respect" the results of the previous four referendums. > > […] > > Mr Tucker, who sits on the crossbench of Western Australia's Upper House, won his seat after he was elected with just 98 votes, or 0.2 per cent of the vote, and represents WA's Mining and Pastoral region where voters have delivered strong no votes in daylight saving referendums in 1975, 1984, 1992, and 2009. It should also be pointed out that Wilson Tucker wasn’t even living in Australia when he was elected (via weird voting preference deals that have resulted in calls to update the WA voting legislation).
