It is probably wise to rename the database or the web presentation of it, I just tried AltaVista, got an estimated 10313 pages found, and checked the first ten pages by hand. Nine were references to the time zone database; the other web page wasn't reachable. I also tried ``tz'' and got an estimated 85414 pages. None of the first ten pages were for the database. Several were for Tanzania, as TZ is its two-letter country code. So from this admittedly limited survey, ``zoneinfo'' is a good name but ``tz'' is not.
