If you want to claim some data is incorrect, provide evidence to support that, otherwise you're simply maligning whoever supplied the data in the first place (nb: not necessarily the person who edited it into tzdb, but the source of their information.) Yeah, that is a fair point. It looks like a lot of the stuff that initially got put into backzone was put there because the only source for it was Shanks, and we've found enough errors in Shanks to have healthy distrust for it. Still, in the absence of other evidence, that remains the best available data.
Yes. The "maligning" has occurred in the comments in the database already, by the very person who inserted the data. I don't feel the need to go farther. Eliot
