Обсуждение: timezones revisited

Just heard on tv, Japan is either considering or planning on trying
Daylight Savings Time this year.  Didn't one of the Tom's just finish
the timezone stuff?

I just finished documenting the existing time zone info (and fixing a
few bad values). To accept a new Japanese TZ abbreviation, we would just
need to add it to the relevant table in dt.c. For output, we rely on the
underlying OS to provide the info.
