1# Zones that go back beyond the scope of the tz database 2 3# This file is in the public domain. 4 5# This file is by no means authoritative; if you think you know 6# better, go ahead and edit it (and please send any changes to 7# tz@iana.org for general use in the future). For more, please see 8# the file CONTRIBUTING in the tz distribution. 9 10 11# From Paul Eggert (2014-10-31): 12 13# This file contains data outside the normal scope of the tz database, 14# in that its zones do not differ from normal tz zones after 1970. 15# Links in this file point to zones in this file, superseding links in 16# the file 'backward'. 17 18# Although zones in this file may be of some use for analyzing 19# pre-1970 timestamps, they are less reliable, cover only a tiny 20# sliver of the pre-1970 era, and cannot feasibly be improved to cover 21# most of the era. Because the zones are out of normal scope for the 22# database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of 23# the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or 24# replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they 25# differed from other zones only in pre-1970 timestamps. 26 27# Unless otherwise specified, the source for data through 1990 is: 28# Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), 29# San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). 30# Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources. 31 32# This file is not intended to be compiled standalone, as it 33# assumes rules from other files. In the tz distribution, use 34# 'make PACKRATDATA=backzone zones' to compile and install this file. 35 36 37# From Paul Eggert (2020-04-15): 38# The following remarks should be incorporated into this table sometime. 39# Patches in 'git format-patch' format would be welcome. 40# 41# From Phake Nick (2020-04-15): 42# ... the historical timezone data for those China zones seems to be 43# incorrect. The transition to GMT+8 date given there for these zones 44# were 1980 which also contradict the file description that they do 45# not disagree with normal zone after 1970. According to sources that 46# have also been cited in the asia file, except Xinjiang and Tibet, 47# they should have adopted the Beijing Time from around 1949/1950 48# depends on exactly when each of those cities were taken over by the 49# communist army. And they should also follow the DST setting of 50# Asia/Shanghai after that point of time. In addition, 51# http://gaz.ncl.edu.tw/detail.jsp?sysid=E1091792 the document from 52# Chongqing Nationalist government say in year 1945 all of China 53# should adopt summer time due to the war (not sure whether it 54# continued after WWII ends)(Probably only enforced in area under 55# their rule at the time?) The Asia/Harbin's 1932 and 1940 entry 56# should also be incorrect. As per sources recorded at 57# https://wiki.suikawiki.org/n/%E6%BA%80%E5%B7%9E%E5%9B%BD%E3%81%AE%E6%A8%99%E6%BA%96%E6%99%82 58# , in 1932 Harbin should have adopted UTC+8:00 instead of data 59# currently listed in the tz database according to official 60# announcement from Manchuko. And they should have adopted GMT+9 in 61# 1937 January 1st according to official announcement at the time 62# being cited on the webpage. 63 64 65# Zones are sorted by zone name. Each zone is preceded by the 66# name of the country that the zone is in, along with any other 67# commentary and rules associated with the entry. 68# 69# As explained in the zic man page, the zone columns are: 70# Zone NAME STDOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] 71 72# Ethiopia 73# From Paul Eggert (2014-07-31): 74# Like the Swahili of Kenya and Tanzania, many Ethiopians keep a 75# 12-hour clock starting at our 06:00, so their "8 o'clock" is our 76# 02:00 or 14:00. Keep this in mind when you ask the time in Amharic. 77# 78# Shanks & Pottenger write that Ethiopia had six narrowly-spaced time 79# zones between 1870 and 1890, that they merged to 38E50 (2:35:20) in 80# 1890, and that they switched to 3:00 on 1936-05-05. Perhaps 38E50 81# was for Adis Dera.
