Date: Mon, 25 May 1998 13:26:14 +1000 From: Alex LIVINGSTON <alex@agsm.unsw.edu.au> In the australsia file, how about including Cocos (nearer to Christmas Island than Christmas Island is to Australia) and Norfolk (admittedly further from Australia than, say, New Caledonia, but still closer to Australia's east coast than Perth is) in the "Australian miscellany" section, since they belong to Australia? Because they have their own ISO country codes. Actually, consistency suggests that Christmas Island should be kept seperate from Australian miscellany, as it has its own ISO country code. E.g. something like the following. This doesn't change the order of the data entries, just the commentary, which is probably why the other coordinator didn't notice this discrepancy. --- australasia 1998/05/24 07:28:25 1998.4.1.1 +++ australasia 1998/05/25 07:19:09 1998.4.1.2 @@ -159,7 +159,4 @@ Zone Australia/Lord_Howe 10:36:20 - LMT # Australian miscellany -# Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] -Zone Indian/Christmas 7:02:52 - LMT 1895 Feb - 7:00 - CXT # Christmas Island Time # # Ashmore Is, Cartier @@ -179,4 +176,8 @@ Zone Indian/Christmas 7:02:52 - LMT 1895 # no information +# Christmas +# Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] +Zone Indian/Christmas 7:02:52 - LMT 1895 Feb + 7:00 - CXT # Christmas Island Time
