The 2016j release of the tz code and data is available. It reflects the
following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list or are
relatively minor technical or administrative changes:
Briefly: Saratov, Russia moves from +03 to +04 on 2016-12-04.
Changes to future time stamps
Saratov, Russia switches from +03 to +04 on 2016-12-04 at 02:00.
This hives off a new zone Europe/Saratov from Europe/Volgograd.
(Thanks to Yuri Konotopov and Stepan Golosunov.)
Changes to past time stamps
The new zone Asia/Atyrau for Atyraū Region, Kazakhstan, is like
Asia/Aqtau except it switched from +04/+05 to +05/+06 in spring
1999, not fall 1994. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Changes to past time zone abbreviations
Asia/Gaza and Asia/Hebron now use "EEST", not "EET", to denote
summer time before 1948. The old use of "EET" was a typo.
Changes to code
zic no longer mishandles file systems that lack hard links, fixing
bugs introduced in 2016g. (Problems reported by Tom Lane.)
Also, when the destination already contains symbolic links, zic
should now work better on systems where the 'link' system call
does not follow symbolic links.
Changes to documentation and commentary
tz-link.htm now documents the relationship between release version
numbers and development-repository commit tags. (Suggested by
Paul Koning.)
The 'Theory' file now documents UT.
iso3166.tab now accents "Curaçao", and commentary now mentions
the names "Cabo Verde" and "Czechia". (Thanks to Jiří Boháč.)

The 2016i release of the tz code and data is available. It reflects the
following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list
or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes:
Briefly: Cyprus split into two time zones on 2016-10-30, and Tonga
reintroduces DST on 2016-11-06.
Changes to future time stamps
Pacific/Tongatapu begins DST on 2016-11-06 at 02:00, ending on
2017-01-15 at 03:00. Assume future observances in Tonga will be
from the first Sunday in November through the third Sunday in
January, like Fiji. (Thanks to Pulu ʻAnau.) Switch to numeric
time zone abbreviations for this zone.
Changes to past and future time stamps
Northern Cyprus is now +03 year round, causing a split in Cyprus
time zones starting 2016-10-30 at 04:00. This creates a zone
Asia/Famagusta. (Thanks to Even Scharning and Matt Johnson.)
Antarctica/Casey switched from +08 to +11 on 2016-10-22.
(Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Changes to past time stamps
Several corrections were made for pre-1975 time stamps in Italy.
These affect Europe/Malta, Europe/Rome, Europe/San_Marino, and
Europe/Vatican.
First, the 1893-11-01 00:00 transition in Italy used the new UT
offset (+01), not the old (+00:49:56). (Thanks to Michael
Deckers.)
Second, rules for daylight saving in Italy were changed to agree
with Italy's National Institute of Metrological Research (INRiM)
except for 1944, as follows (thanks to Pierpaolo Bernardi, Brian
Inglis, and Michael Deckers):
The 1916-06-03 transition was at 24:00, not 00:00.
The 1916-10-01, 1919-10-05, and 1920-09-19 transitions were at
00:00, not 01:00.
The 1917-09-30 and 1918-10-06 transitions were at 24:00, not
01:00.
The 1944-09-17 transition was at 03:00, not 01:00. This
particular change is taken from Italian law as INRiM's table,
(which says 02:00) appears to have a typo here. Also, keep the
1944-04-03 transition for Europe/Rome, as Rome was controlled by
Germany then.
The 1967-1970 and 1972-1974 fallback transitions were at 01:00,
not 00:00.
Changes to code
The code should now be buildable on AmigaOS merely by setting the
appropriate Makefile variables. (From a patch by Carsten Larsen.)
