I'm forwarding this message from Nicolas Alavarez, who is not on the time zone mailing list. Those of you who are on the list, please direct replies appropriately. (With seven letters of the alphabet left and only six Mondays left in 2009--Monday being the usual day of the week when the ftp version is updated--reaching z is unlikely this year. And we've never reached z in the past.) --ado -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:news@ger.gmane.org] On Behalf Of Nicolas Alvarez Sent: Monday, November 16, 2009 2:03 To: tz@lecserver.nci.nih.gov Subject: Re: tzdata2009s Olson, Arthur David (NIH/NCI) [E] wrote:

What happens if we reach 'z' before the year is over?
