Therefore and once again, I converted the latest version of the zic.8 file to html.

Did you generate the HTML automatically? If so, I'd rather put the automated procedure into the makefile. If not, then I'm a bit dubious. I'd rather not maintain two forms of the documentation by hand. In my experience, HTML is not a particularly good way to maintain computer documentation. I'd far rather use texinfo, but even man pages are better than HTML. Ideally the automated procedure, whatever it is, would generate XHTML 1.1, which is the latest version of HTML. (Hmm, I see that tz-link.htm and tz-art.htm specify XHTML 1.0; time to upgrade.)
