Incorrect time zone abbreviations for Indonesia
Dear time zone data maintainers, I'm a developer at ProZ.com, a website for human language translators. One of our users has reported that the time zone names for the time zones in Indonesia, specifically Asia/Jakarta, Asia/Pontianak, Asia/Makassar, and Asia/Jayapura, are incorrect in the current time zone data. According to her, and to the following references, it appears that these time zone abbreviations should be updated as follows: ID offset current new Asia/Jakarta UTC+7 WIT WIB (Waktu Indonesia Barat) Asia/Pontianak UTC+7 WIT WIB (Waktu Indonesia Barat) Asia/Makassar UTC+8 CIT WITA (Waktu Indonesia Tengah) Asia/Jayapura UTC+9 EIT WIT (Waktu Indonesia Timur) References: http://time.kim.lipi.go.id/ http://www.statoids.com/tid.html I noticed a similar bug report from 2005 but I was unable to find any resolution: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.glibc/12741/match=indonesi... I hope this gives enough information to update these time zone names. Thanks to all of you who help to maintain this valuable resource. Best regards, Jason Grimes
