I suspect that for the moment I just won't include backzone as a data source, with the result of the same set of zone IDs as in 2014f, but more of them being aliases. For most Noda Time users that's probably fine, but I may well want to allow users to use backzone data in the future, so I figure it's worth understanding as early as possible...
This is part of my complaint about this process. Zones in backzone contain additional data to the information in the main database. My own example is Europe/Isle_of_Man and the other UK islands which have different start dates to the merged Europe/London ... The same with other zones, although the level of confidence in the data is variable. Basically anything in backzone needs it's link to the truncated alias removing. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
