As for whether zone.tab should say UA or RU for Simferopol, we don't have the resources to arbitrate disputes like that either. If this turns into a real dispute that starts taking up our resources, then we'll need to change zone.tab's format so that it is less of a political flashpoint. This will entail some technical conversion hassles, but in the long run that'll less work for us and for our users than the neverending political hassles.
No, that just pushes the work onto the downstream distributors.
Which work?
The work of figuring out which "country" uses the various timezones. -GAWollman
