My only thought is that maybe the first '=' should be the whole GMTOFF, and the other zone be the RULES. That eliminates one '=' at the end and maybe makes the line easier to parse. Or maybe not. I need to read the cited paper.
Well, that was an easy read. 8-) Can anyone think of a use case for "use this zone but with a different set of rules"? If not, then I would suggest making the other zone name be the RULES as I said.
