But TZDB already favours London over Bristol, Paris over Lyons, Amsterdam over Den Haag, Berlin over Frankfurt, Los Angeles over Seattle, and so on. Without using the word "country", please explain the difference.
Why exactly should the answer to that not involve the word "country"?
Because countries aren't part of the present TZDB policies.
Timekeeping laws are generally set at the country level.
Though the ones affecting Oslo and Berlin are made at another level, meaning they're both affected by the same authority. -- Clive D.W. Feather | If you lie to the compiler, Email: clive@davros.org | it will get its revenge. Web: http://www.davros.org | - Henry Spencer Mobile: +44 7973 377646
