Kyiv not Kiev error
by Євген Доманський June 24, 2022

June 24, 2022

Dear All There is an error in name of the capital city of Ukraine - Kiev ('Київ' in Ukrainian language). Kiev is the transliteration of the city name from Russian language. The only correct transliteration is Kyiv. Please update the name. Best regards. *Yevhen Domanskyi* *Study Coordinator* Department of Oncology and Medical Radiology Dnipro State Medical University 31, Blyzhnya Str., Dnipro, 49102, Ukraine *Mobile*: +380 93 060 26 92 *e-mail: *dom.eugene(a)gmail.com Website: http://www.sitetv.net/ <http:/www.sitetv.net/>

Change Request: Europe/Kiev to Europe/Kyiv
by Oleksandr Leskiv June 23, 2022

June 23, 2022

The history of timezones has some existing cases where a specific timezone has been renamed. For example, the *Asia/Calcutta* timezone has been deemed obsolete and replaced by *Asia/Kolkata*. In Ukraine, according to international standards, there is a timezone called *Europe/Kiev*. The capital of Ukraine is officially and internationally should be spelled as "Kyiv". "Kiev" is an incorrect version that emerged a long time before the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. We have a really large community of programmers that would like to start the process of renaming the Europe/Kiev timezone to Europe/Kyiv. We understand that it will take a long time for everybody to transition, but it has to be done in the long term. Sincerely, Oleksandr. TakeUsEat.

time zone boundaries contributing to higher traffic fatalities
by BASTIAN Michelle June 13, 2022

June 13, 2022

Hi all, I thought you might be interested in this recent paper on time zone boundaries and links with traffic fatalities - just published in Time & Society https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0961463X221104675 Living in the wrong time zone: Elevated risk of traffic fatalities in eccentric time localities Jeffery Gentry, Jayson Evaniuck, Thanchira Suriyamongkol, Ivana Mali Abstract Chronobiology research has uncovered a host of maladies linked to social jetlag (SJL), the sleep-disrupting disconnect between solar time and social time. This interdisciplinary study applies chronobiology theory to the potential effect of misaligned time zones on motor-vehicle deaths. In the U.S. 53 million residents live in counties located outside their official time zones' standard 15° span of longitude, based on degrees west of the prime meridian. We refer to these counties as eccentric time localities (ETLs), all of which lie west of their time zones' standard western border in the U.S. In contrast, counties within 7.5° of their time zone's standard geographic center are what we call solar zones. Solar zones do not vary more than 30 minutes from true solar time. ETL residents are forced to rise before dawn, possibly restricting their sleep-time and suppressing both morning and evening zeitgebers that would support their circadian entrainment. Hypothesizing that living in ETLs amplifies social jetlag, data on 417,399 traffic fatalities in the U.S. between 2006 and 2017 from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) census were analyzed via GIS mapping and population-data statistics. Road fatalities among residents of solar zones were compared to those living in ETLs within the same official time zone. ETL residents across the U.S. indicated 21.8% higher fatality-rates than solar residents, with a mean of 1286 additional (i.e., unexpected) deaths-per-year. Results support circadian entrainment theory and are consistent with the SJL construct. The socio-political ramifications of these findings are discussed, as well as the subject of best practices when analyzing whole-population data. The authors conclude that the unquestioned rhetoric of time-zone boundaries should be reconsidered in social policy.

Invalid tm handling in %s pattern in strftime
by Almaz Mingaleev June 7, 2022

June 7, 2022

Hi Paul, https://github.com/eggert/tz/commit/8b238ec54c09556eb2aa405c1741eedfd12c4a8… added validation of tm argument. I wonder why localtime_r call is done: 1) According to the man page mktime sets errno if tm is invalid. Why is it not safe to just check errno value (saving and restoring it if needed)? 2) man page says that in error case mktime "returns (time_t) -1 and does not alter the members of the broken-down time structure". Wouldn't it be enough to check that tm.tm_yday is >= 0? Thanks, Almaz
