I'd like the following information about Japanese antarctic stations to be written in tzdata. Japan has two year-round bases: Syowa and Dome Fuji. (http://www.delm.tas.gov.au/comnap/members.html#Japan) In all Japanese stations, +0300 is used as the standard time. (http://www.crl.go.jp/uk/uk201/basyo.htm (Japanese) and information from KAMO Hiroyasu <wd@ics.nara-wu.ac.jp>) Syowa station, which is the first antarctic station of Japan, was established on 1957-01-29. Since Syowa station is still the main station of Japan, it's appropriate for the principal location. The location of these stations are: Showa: -690022+0393524 Dome Fuji: -771901+0394212 (http://www.nipr.ac.jp/english/jare.html, http://www.nipr.ac.jp/jp/station/station.html (Japanese)) I noticed that the URL http://earth.agu.org/amen/nations.html at the beginning of the file antarctica does not exist. There is the corresponding page at COMNAP: http://www.delm.tas.gov.au/comnap/station.html -- hideyuki
