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?

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
