I was about to suggest this, but am concerned about whether having the TZ project under the UC umbrella would really allow it to "continue basically as it does now." Other projects under UC such as CLDR have lengthy input/review/release cycles, but the TZ data has to be able to be turned around quickly due to the unpredictability of time changes in some countries (Egypt is still fresh in my mind). -- Larry Gilbert <lgilbert@digium.com> Digium | Switchvox On Thu, 2009-08-27 at 10:48 -0700, Mark Davis ⌛ wrote:
The officers of the Unicode Consortium (http://unicode.org) have discussed this issue, and are interested in exploring hosting the TZ efforts. Aside from the Unicode projects, we currently also support other independent efforts (http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/, http://www.unicode.org/udhr/). Hosting the TZ project would provide for mailing list hosting, code distribution, source code repository (SVN) if desired, etc., web pages, etc. -- presuming that the functioning of the TZ group would continue basically as it does now.
