isnt the term TIMEZONE a term of art specific to Time Keeping as a science? I thought it was. So what is the issue - proper English then to hide terms which are specific to this realm? todd On 7/3/2014 1:45 AM, Tobias Conradi wrote:
Mr. Daboo,
would be nice if you could fix "timezone" to "time zone".

I suppose it's too late to ask them to split "timezone" into "time zone" everywhere in their documentation etc? Just a minor peeve, but...

Cyrus Daboo has proposed a new working group in the Applications Area, and I'm initiating charter discussion on it:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-tzdist/
We'll have the charter discussion here on apps-discuss. Assuming a working group comes out of this, we'll create a new mailing list for the actual work, once the charter is done.
Comments on this charter are welcome. I expect to put it on the 10 July IESG telechat for initial approval, after which it will go out for IETF and external review. So, comments here by 4 July, please.
Barry, Applications AD
