2017b release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert March 23, 2017

March 23, 2017

The 2017b 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: Haiti has resumed DST. Changes to past and future time stamps Haiti resumed observance of DST in 2017. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes to past time stamps Liberia changed from -004430 to +00 on 1972-01-07, not 1972-05-01. Use "MMT" to abbreviate Liberia's time zone before 1972, as "-004430" is one byte over the POSIX limit. (Problem reported by Derick Rethans.)

2017a release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert Feb. 28, 2017

Feb. 28, 2017

The 2017a 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: Southern Chile moves from -04/-03 to -03, and Mongolia discontinues DST. Changes to future time stamps Mongolia no longer observes DST. (Thanks to Ganbold Tsagaankhuu.) Chile's Region of Magallanes moves from -04/-03 to -03 year-round. Its clocks diverge from America/Santiago starting 2017-05-13 at 23:00, hiving off a new zone America/Punta_Arenas. Although the Chilean government says this change expires in May 2019, for now assume it's permanent. (Thanks to Juan Correa and Deborah Goldsmith.) This also affects Antarctica/Palmer. Changes to past time stamps Fix many entries for historical time stamps for Europe/Madrid before 1979, to agree with tables compiled by Pere Planesas of the National Astronomical Observatory of Spain. As a side effect, this changes some time stamps for Africa/Ceuta before 1929, which are probably guesswork anyway. (Thanks to Steve Allen and Pierpaolo Bernardi for the heads-ups, and to Michael Deckers for correcting the 1901 transition.) Ecuador observed DST from 1992-11-28 to 1993-02-05. (Thanks to Alois Treindl.) Asia/Atyrau and Asia/Oral were at +03 (not +04) before 1930-06-21. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Changes to past and future time zone abbreviations Switch to numeric time zone abbreviations for South America, as part of the ongoing project of removing invented abbreviations. This avoids the need to invent an abbreviation for the new Chilean new zone. Similarly, switch from invented to numeric time zone abbreviations for Afghanistan, American Samoa, the Azores, Bangladesh, Bhutan, the British Indian Ocean Territory, Brunei, Cape Verde, Chatham Is, Christmas I, Cocos (Keeling) Is, Cook Is, Dubai, East Timor, Eucla, Fiji, French Polynesia, Greenland, Indochina, Iran, Iraq, Kiribati, Lord Howe, Macquarie, Malaysia, the Maldives, Marshall Is, Mauritius, Micronesia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nauru, Nepal, New Caledonia, Niue, Norfolk I, Palau, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Pitcairn, Qatar, Réunion, St Pierre & Miquelon, Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Seychelles, Singapore, Solomon Is, Tokelau, Tuvalu, Wake, Vanuatu, Wallis & Futuna, and Xinjiang; for 20-minute daylight saving time in Ghana before 1943; for half-hour daylight saving time in Belize before 1944 and in the Dominican Republic before 1975; and for Canary Islands before 1946, for Guinea-Bissau before 1975, for Iceland before 1969, for Indian Summer Time before 1942, for Indonesia before around 1964, for Kenya before 1960, for Liberia before 1973, for Madeira before 1967, for Namibia before 1943, for the Netherlands in 1937-9, for Pakistan before 1971, for Western Sahara before 1977, and for Zaporozhye in 1880-1924. For Alaska time from 1900 through 1967, instead of "CAT" use the abbreviation "AST", the abbreviation commonly used at the time (Atlantic Standard Time had not been standardized yet). Use "AWT" and "APT" instead of the invented abbreviations "CAWT" and "CAPT". Use "CST" and "CDT" instead of invented abbreviations for Macau before 1999 and Taiwan before 1938, and use "JST" instead of the invented abbreviation "JCST" for Japan and Korea before 1938. Change to database entry category Move the Pacific/Johnston link from 'australasia' to 'backward', since Johnston is now uninhabited. Changes to code zic no longer mishandles some transitions in January 2038 when it attempts to work around Qt bug 53071. This fixes a bug affecting Pacific/Tongatapu that was introduced in zic 2016e. localtime.c now contains a workaround, useful when loading a file generated by a buggy zic. (Problem and localtime.c fix reported by Bradley White.) zdump -i now outputs non-hour numeric time zone abbreviations without a colon, e.g., "+0530" rather than "+05:30". This agrees with zic %z and with common practice, and simplifies auditing of zdump output. zdump is now buildable again with -DUSE_LTZ=0. (Problem reported by Joseph Myers.) zdump.c now always includes private.h, to avoid code duplication with private.h. (Problem reported by Kees Dekker.) localtime.c no longer mishandles early or late timestamps when TZ is set to a POSIX-style string that specifies DST. (Problem reported by Kees Dekker.) date and strftime now cause %z to generate "-0000" instead of "+0000" when the UT offset is zero and the time zone abbreviation begins with "-". Changes to documentation and commentary The 'Theory' file now better documents choice of historical time zone abbreviations. (Problems reported by Michael Deckers.) tz-link.htm now covers leap smearing, which is popular in clouds.

2016j release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert Nov. 24, 2016

Nov. 24, 2016

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.)

2016i release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert Nov. 3, 2016

Nov. 3, 2016

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.)

2016h release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert Oct. 20, 2016

Oct. 20, 2016

The 2016h release of the tz code and data is available. Its primary motivation is to update to the new rules for Palestine, where 2016g becomes incorrect starting about four hours from now (sorry, we didn't get much notice). More generally, the 2016h release reflects the following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes: Changes to future time stamps Asia/Gaza and Asia/Hebron end DST on 2016-10-29 at 01:00, not 2016-10-21 at 00:00. (Thanks to Sharef Mustafa.) Predict that future fall transitions will be on the last Saturday of October at 01:00, which is consistent with predicted spring transitions on the last Saturday of March. (Thanks to Tim Parenti.) Changes to past time stamps In Turkey, transitions in 1986-1990 were at 01:00 standard time not at 02:00, and the spring 1994 transition was on March 20, not March 27. (Thanks to Kıvanç Yazan.) Changes to past and future time zone abbreviations Asia/Colombo now uses numeric time zone abbreviations like "+0530" instead of alphabetic ones like "IST" and "LKT". Various English-language sources use "IST", "LKT" and "SLST", with no working consensus. (Usage of "SLST" mentioned by Sadika Sumanapala.) Changes to code zic no longer mishandles relativizing file names when creating symbolic links like /etc/localtime, when these symbolic links are outside the usual directory hierarchy. This fixes a bug introduced in 2016g. (Problem reported by Andreas Stieger.) Changes to build procedure New rules 'traditional_tarballs' and 'traditional_signatures' for building just the traditional-format distribution. (Requested by Deborah Goldsmith.) The file 'version' is now put into the tzdata tarball too. (Requested by Howard Hinnant.) Changes to documentation and commentary The 'Theory' file now has a section on interface stability. (Requested by Paul Koning.) It also mentions features like tm_zone and localtime_rz that have long been supported by the reference code. tz-link.htm has improved coverage of time zone boundaries suitable for geolocation. (Thanks to heads-ups from Evan Siroky and Matt Johnson.) The US commentary now mentions Allen and the "day of two noons". The Fiji commentary mentions the government's 2016-10-03 press release.

2016g release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert Sept. 28, 2016

Sept. 28, 2016

The 2016g 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: Changes to future time stamps Turkey switched from EET/EEST (+02/+03) to permanent +03, effective 2016-09-07. (Thanks to Burak AYDIN.) Use "+03" rather than an invented abbreviation for the new time. New leap second 2016-12-31 23:59:60 UTC as per IERS Bulletin C 52. (Thanks to Tim Parenti.) Changes to past time stamps For America/Los_Angeles, spring-forward transition times have been corrected from 02:00 to 02:01 in 1948, and from 02:00 to 01:00 in 1950-1966. For zones using Soviet time on 1919-07-01, transitions to UT-based time were at 00:00 UT, not at 02:00 local time. The affected zones are Europe/Kirov, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Samara, and Europe/Ulyanovsk. (Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky.) Changes to past and future time zone abbreviations The Factory zone now uses the time zone abbreviation -00 instead of a long English-language string, as -00 is now the normal way to represent an undefined time zone. Several zones in Antarctica and the former Soviet Union, along with zones intended for ships at sea that cannot use POSIX TZ strings, now use numeric time zone abbreviations instead of invented or obsolete alphanumeric abbreviations. The affected zones are Antarctica/Casey, Antarctica/Davis, Antarctica/DumontDUrville, Antarctica/Mawson, Antarctica/Rothera, Antarctica/Syowa, Antarctica/Troll, Antarctica/Vostok, Asia/Anadyr, Asia/Ashgabat, Asia/Baku, Asia/Bishkek, Asia/Chita, Asia/Dushanbe, Asia/Irkutsk, Asia/Kamchatka, Asia/Khandyga, Asia/Krasnoyarsk, Asia/Magadan, Asia/Omsk, Asia/Sakhalin, Asia/Samarkand, Asia/Srednekolymsk, Asia/Tashkent, Asia/Tbilisi, Asia/Ust-Nera, Asia/Vladivostok, Asia/Yakutsk, Asia/Yekaterinburg, Asia/Yerevan, Etc/GMT-14, Etc/GMT-13, Etc/GMT-12, Etc/GMT-11, Etc/GMT-10, Etc/GMT-9, Etc/GMT-8, Etc/GMT-7, Etc/GMT-6, Etc/GMT-5, Etc/GMT-4, Etc/GMT-3, Etc/GMT-2, Etc/GMT-1, Etc/GMT+1, Etc/GMT+2, Etc/GMT+3, Etc/GMT+4, Etc/GMT+5, Etc/GMT+6, Etc/GMT+7, Etc/GMT+8, Etc/GMT+9, Etc/GMT+10, Etc/GMT+11, Etc/GMT+12, Europe/Kaliningrad, Europe/Minsk, Europe/Samara, Europe/Volgograd, and Indian/Kerguelen. For Europe/Moscow the invented abbreviation MSM was replaced by +05, whereas MSK and MSD were kept as they are not our invention and are widely used. Changes to zone names Rename Asia/Rangoon to Asia/Yangon, with a backward compatibility link. (Thanks to David Massoud.) Changes to code zic no longer generates binary files containing POSIX TZ-like strings that disagree with the local time type after the last explicit transition in the data. This fixes a bug with Africa/Casablanca and Africa/El_Aaiun in some year-2037 time stamps on the reference platform. (Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky for reporting the bug and suggesting a way forward.) If the installed localtime and/or posixrules files are symbolic links, zic now keeps them symbolic links when updating them, for compatibility with platforms like OpenSUSE where other programs configure these files as symlinks. zic now avoids hard linking to symbolic links, avoids some unnecessary mkdir and stat system calls, and uses shorter file names internally. zdump has a new -i option to generate transitions in a more-compact but still human-readable format. This option is experimental, and the output format may change in future versions. (Thanks to Jon Skeet for suggesting that an option was needed, and thanks to Tim Parenti and Chris Rovick for further comments.) Changes to build procedure An experimental distribution format is available, in addition to the traditional format which will continue to be distributed. The new format is a tarball tzdb-VERSION.tar.lz with signature file tzdb-VERSION.tar.lz.asc. It unpacks to a top-level directory tzdb-VERSION containing the code and data of the traditional two-tarball format, along with extra data that may be useful. (Thanks to Antonio Diaz Diaz, Oscar van Vlijmen, and many others for comments about the experimental format.) The release version number is now more accurate in the usual case where releases are built from a Git repository. For example, if 23 commits and some working-file changes have been made since release 2016g, the version number is now something like '2016g-23-g50556e3-dirty' instead of the misleading '2016g'. Official releases uses the same version number format as before, e.g., '2016g'. To support the more-accurate version number, its specification has moved from a line in the Makefile to a new source file 'version'. The experimental distribution contains a file to2050.tzs that contains what should be the output of 'zdump -i -c 2050' on primary zones. If this file is available, 'make check' now checks that zdump generates this output. 'make check_web' now works on Fedora-like distributions. Changes to documentation and commentary tzfile.5 now documents the new restriction on POSIX TZ-like strings that is now implemented by zic. Comments now cite URLs for some 1917-1921 Russian DST decrees. (Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky.) tz-link.htm mentions JuliaTime (thanks to Curtis Vogt) and Time4J (thanks to Meno Hochschild) and ThreeTen-Extra, and its description of Java 8 has been brought up to date (thanks to Stephen Colebourne). Its description of local time on Mars has been updated to match current practice, and URLs have been updated and some obsolete ones removed.

July 5, 2016

The 2016f 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: Changes affecting future time stamps The Egyptian government changed its mind on short notice, and Africa/Cairo will not introduce DST starting 2016-07-07 after all. (Thanks to Mina Samuel.) Asia/Novosibirsk switches from +06 to +07 on 2016-07-24 at 02:00. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Changes to past and future time stamps Asia/Novokuznetsk and Asia/Novosibirsk now use numeric time zone abbreviations instead of invented ones.

2016e release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert June 14, 2016

June 14, 2016

The 2016e 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: Changes affecting future time stamps Africa/Cairo observes DST in 2016 from July 7 to the end of October. Guess October 27 and 24:00 transitions. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) For future years, guess April's last Thursday to October's last Thursday except for Ramadan. Changes affecting past time stamps Locations while uninhabited now use '-00', not 'zzz', as a placeholder time zone abbreviation. This is inspired by Internet RFC 3339 and is more consistent with numeric time zone abbreviations already used elsewhere. The change affects several arctic and antarctic locations, e.g., America/Cambridge_Bay before 1920 and Antarctica/Troll before 2005. Asia/Baku's 1992-09-27 transition from +04 (DST) to +04 (non-DST) was at 03:00, not 23:00 the previous day. (Thanks to Michael Deckers.) Changes to code zic now outputs a dummy transition at time 2**31 - 1 in zones whose POSIX-style TZ strings contain a '<'. This mostly works around Qt bug 53071 <https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-53071>. (Thanks to Zhanibek Adilbekov for reporting the Qt bug.)

2016d release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert April 18, 2016

April 18, 2016

The 2016d 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: Changes affecting future time stamps America/Caracas switches from -0430 to -04 on 2016-05-01 at 02:30. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev for the heads-up.) Asia/Magadan switches from +10 to +11 on 2016-04-24 at 02:00. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev and Matt Johnson.) New zone Asia/Tomsk, split off from Asia/Novosibirsk. It covers Tomsk Oblast, Russia, which switches from +06 to +07 on 2016-05-29 at 02:00. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Changes affecting past time stamps New zone Europe/Kirov, split off from Europe/Volgograd. It covers Kirov Oblast, Russia, which switched from +04/+05 to +03/+04 on 1989-03-26 at 02:00, roughly a year after Europe/Volgograd made the same change. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Russia and nearby locations had daylight-saving transitions on 1992-03-29 at 02:00 and 1992-09-27 at 03:00, instead of on 1992-03-28 at 23:00 and 1992-09-26 at 23:00. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Many corrections to historical time in Kazakhstan from 1991 through 2005. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Replace Kazakhstan's invented time zone abbreviations with numeric abbreviations.

2016c release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert March 23, 2016

March 23, 2016

The 2016c release of the tz code and data is available. Its most urgent change is for Asia/Baku, where the update takes effect this weekend. This release reflects the following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes: Changes affecting future time stamps Azerbaijan no longer observes DST. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Chile reverts from permanent to seasonal DST. (Thanks to Juan Correa for the heads-up, and to Tim Parenti for corrections.) Guess that future transitions are August's and May's second Saturdays at 24:00 mainland time. Also, call the period from 2014-09-07 through 2016-05-14 daylight saving time instead of standard time, as that seems more appropriate now. Changes affecting past time stamps Europe/Kaliningrad and Europe/Vilnius changed from +03/+04 to +02/+03 on 1989-03-26, not 1991-03-31. Europe/Volgograd changed from +04/+05 to +03/+04 on 1988-03-27, not 1989-03-26. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Changes to commentary Several updates and URLs for historical and proposed Russian changes. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov, Matt Johnson, and Alexander Krivenyshev.)
