The main issue with this is that applications which display the name by regions, get inconsistent display when showing Europe/Russian Federation regions. Two zones, Volgograd and Moscow, show a +00 offset, Kaliningrad shows and -01 offset and Samara shows no offset. This is confusing to the users. Can we please get this patched in the next release? The patch would be --- a/tzdata2011n/zone.tab 2011-10-28 02:54:04.000000000 -0700 +++ b/tzdata2011n/zone.tab 2011-11-07 13:28:23.000000000 -0800 @@ -334,5 +334,5 @@ RU +5443+02030 Europe/Kaliningrad Moscow RU +5545+03735 Europe/Moscow Moscow+00 - west Russia RU +4844+04425 Europe/Volgograd Moscow+00 - Caspian Sea -RU +5312+05009 Europe/Samara Moscow - Samara, Udmurtia +RU +5312+05009 Europe/Samara Moscow+00 - Samara, Udmurtia RU +5651+06036 Asia/Yekaterinburg Moscow+02 - Urals RU +5500+07324 Asia/Omsk Moscow+03 - west Siberia Thanks - Manpreet On 10/31/11 3:36 PM, "Manpreet Singh" <manprsi2@cisco.com> wrote:
Hello, Europe/Samara has the follow zone.tab definition since 2010g (no offset listed)
RU +5312+05009 Europe/Samara Moscow - Samara, Udmurtia
It used to be
RU +5312+05009 Europe/Samara Moscow+01 - Samara, Udmurtia
Samara changed to Moscow but all the other regions are listed with an offset even if +00 (Volgograd, Moscow) while Samara is not. I can not tell by searching the mail archive if the change this way was intentional or not?
Thanks - Manpreet
