proposed tz patches for Albania, Belgium, Congo, Hong Kong, and WWW

Here are some proposed patches to the tz database, notably to bring it up to date with recent political events: * Hong Kong is now part of China, and Zaire has been renamed Democratic Republic of Congo. These changes don't affect most programs; they just change commentary and tables accessed by tzselect. * Correct the DST changeover times in Albania from 1985 through 1990, as reported in the new edition of Shanks. (Expect more corrections in the future; I haven't had time to read Shanks's new edition past the A's yet.) * Correct several errors in the Belgian entries before 1944. Thanks to Pascal Delmoitie <pascal@belnet.be> for the new data. * Add Eric Ulevik <eau@ozemail.com.au>'s comments about NSW's plans to change clocks for the 2000 Olympics. * Rework WWW.htm to be more HTML-friendly. Add several sites, and update some obsolete references. Also, it'd be nice if WWW.htm could be available as a separate file; this would make it easier to give a URL to people interested in tz data. =================================================================== RCS file: RCS/WWW.htm,v retrieving revision 1997.5 retrieving revision 1997.5.1.3 diff -c -r1997.5 -r1997.5.1.3 *** WWW.htm 1997/05/03 22:52:34 1997.5 --- WWW.htm 1997/07/16 13:09:11 1997.5.1.3 *************** *** 2,109 **** <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> !
