A question: to update for a U.S. DST change, what are best estimates for C, H, and D in the electronics cost formula
C companies * H hours of staff time per company * D dollars per staff hour (H and D values based on past changes elsewhere are most welcome.)
So long as enough notice is given, H would approach 0 for the (very big) company I work at, because thanks in no small part to you and this group, it's a no-code change and we already have processes in place to update the TZ database. But that notice is key, because different organizations take varying amounts of time to deploy updates (much of our stuff is not end-user facing). The one dev area I would want eyes on would be calendaring integration (Apple, Microsoft, Google).
All the majors and many others appear to use CLDR as their source of truth in many areas: https://cldr.unicode.org/#who-uses-cldr -- Take care.
