How Time Zones Are Coordinated
by Kim Davies 15 Mar '23

15 Mar '23

Yesterday we posted a short article that gives a primer on this project: https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/how-time-zones-are-coordinated-13-03… It is also being circulated to attendees to our major conference being held in Mexico this week. An objective in posting this is to better raise awareness with policy makers to plan time zone rule changes well in advance so that changes can be thoroughly disseminated. There are many government representatives from around the world at this Mexico meeting so hopefully this can contribute to spreading the word. kim

But, logically, the change to the GMT schedule should be made on the night of April 10-11, 2021 (last weekend before Ramadan).

Wrong timezone
by Minu Shie 14 Mar '23

14 Mar '23

Hi, I've checked the sites that are currently using your database and all of them have the wrong timezone for Valle Hermoso, Tamaulipas, México. Which should be the same as Matamoros, Tamaulipas, México. (America/Matamoros) instead of (America/Monterrey).

Building tz with gcc-13
by Martin Jansa 13 Mar '23

13 Mar '23

Hello, I was building tz with gcc-13 and noticed that without explicit -std=c2x it fails to build 2022g version with: ``` zic.c:462:1: warning: ‘noreturn’ attribute ignored [-Wattributes] 462 | static ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN void | ^~~~~~ zic.c:462:27: error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘void’ 462 | static ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN void | ^~~~ ``` The last code change on github in this are was: https://github.com/eggert/tz/commit/dbfcefe0c129e36e8c5acbcedf1400c1b486d962 It builds fine for me with gcc-12 without -std: ``` __STDC_VERSION__ = 201710 __has_c_attribute(noreturn) = 0 ``` and with -std=c2x: ``` __STDC_VERSION__ = 202000 __has_c_attribute(noreturn) = 0 __STRICT_ANSI__ ``` but with gcc-13 it builds only with explicit -std=c2x: ``` __STDC_VERSION__ = 202000 __has_c_attribute(noreturn) = 202202 __STRICT_ANSI__ ``` Maybe because __has_c_attribute(noreturn) returns 202202 even when __STDC_VERSION__ doesn't accept it yet? ``` __STDC_VERSION__ = 201710 __has_c_attribute(noreturn) = 202202 ``` >From https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2764.pdf it's not clear to me when exactly [[noreturn]] can be used. It says only this about the value `Drafting note: The value used for __has_c_attribute is a placeholder that is to be replaced by the editors with the year and month the proposal is accepted into the working draft.` Is it a bug in gcc or should it be handled somehow by private.h? Thanks
