POSIX.1-2024 link in theory.html
Hi, I have noticed that <https://data.iana.org/time-zones/theory.html> states
As of this writing, the current edition of POSIX is POSIX.1-2024, which has been published but not yet in HTML form.
It seems, it is time to update this paragraph. For precise location in the repository see the attached file. I am unsure if a more precise link https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/basedefs/V1_chap08.html#tag... should be used. Perhaps some other links should be updated to point to the newer standard revision.
Thanks for reporting that we should be linking to POSIX.1-2024. I installed the attached proposed patches into the development repository.

Thank you, Paul. I expected a bit more changes though.

tz-link.html is not updated by this patch. For "ustar Interchange Format" the anchor is https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/utilities/pax.html#tag_20_9... In addition git grep opengroup gives
tz-how-to.html:<a href="https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/strftime.html"><code>strftime</code></a> zic.8:\*<https://pubs\*:.opengroup\*:.org/\*:onlinepubs/\*:9699919799/\*:basedefs/\*:V1_chap06\*:.html\*>
Thanks, I thought I'd caught all the old POSIX URLs but evidently not. I installed the attached proposed further patch.
