What is Omsk time ?? Aside from its name, what is its offset from UTC, and how has that altered through history? (What dates and times, if any, did Omsk time alter its UTC offset?)
The reporter has succeeded to confuse almost everybody. :) My definition of "everybody" does not allow you to deduct that from the information shared on the tzdb.
There is a good link on the subject of Omsk Time, with references: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omsk_Time With currently the last edit on 14 October, that is not so long after my report of the bug to the tz mailing list. So the tz editor in question did not get confused and was outside your "almost everybody".
And even worse, the bug was already made obvious in February 2011 in Wikipedia at what you claim to be a "good link" http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Omsk_Time&diff=415203440&oldid=415... And the WP editor in question got blocked as a sock puppet of ... User:Tobias_Conradi. Was it Tobias Conradi under another account? And it is so easy to find the "good link", but tz mailing list Tobias Conradi "succeeds in confusing almost everybody". Very powerful he seems to be to you. -- Tobias Conradi Rheinsberger Str. 18 10115 Berlin Germany http://tobiasconradi.com/
