29#
30# I added so many Zone names that the old, mostly flat name space was unwieldy.
31# So I renamed the Zones to have the form AREA/LOCATION, where
32# AREA is the name of a continent or ocean, and
33# LOCATION is the name of a specific location within that region.
34# For example, the old zone name `Egypt' is now `Africa/Cairo'.
30# Previous editions of this database used WAT, CAT, SAT, and EAT
31# for +0:00 through +3:00, respectively,
32# but Mark R V Murray <markm@iafrica.com> reports that
33# `SAST' is the official abbreviation for +2:00 in the country of South Africa,
34# `CAT' is commonly used for +2:00 in countries north of South Africa, and
35# `WAT' is probably the best name for +1:00, as the common phrase for
36# the area that includes Nigeria is ``West Africa''.
37# He has heard of ``Western Sahara Time'' for +0:00 but can find no reference.
35#
38#
36# Here are the general rules I used for choosing location names,
37# in decreasing order of importance:
39# To make things confusing, `WAT' seems to have been used for -1:00 long ago;
40# I'd guess that this was because people needed _some_ name for -1:00,
41# and at the time, far west Africa was the only major land area in -1:00.
42# This usage is now obsolete, as the last use of -1:00 on the African
43# mainland seems to have been 1976 in Western Sahara.
38#
44#
39# Use only valid Posix file names. Use only Ascii letters, digits, `.',
40# `-' and `_'. Do not exceed 14 characters or start with `-'.
41# E.g. prefer `Brunei' to `Bandar_Seri_Begawan'.
42# Include at least one location per time zone rule set per country.
43# One such location is enough.
44# If all the clocks in a country's region have agreed since 1970,
45# don't bother to include more than one location
46# even if subregions' clocks disagreed before 1970.
47# Otherwise these tables would become annoyingly large.
48# If a name is ambiguous, use a less ambiguous alternative;
49# e.g. many cities are named San Jose and Georgetown, so
50# prefer `Costa_Rica' to `San_Jose' and `Guyana' to `Georgetown'.
51# Keep locations compact. Use cities or small islands, not countries
52# or regions, so that any future time zone changes do not split
53# locations into different time zones. E.g. prefer `Paris'
54# to `France', since France has had multiple time zones.
55# Use traditional English spelling, e.g. prefer `Rome' to `Roma', and
56# prefer `Athens' to the true name (which uses Greek letters).
57# The Posix file name restrictions encourage this rule.
58# Use the most populous among locations in a country's time zone,
59# e.g. prefer `Shanghai' to `Beijing'. Among locations with
60# similar populations, pick the best-known location,
61# e.g. prefer `Rome' to `Milan'.
62# Use the singular form, e.g. prefer `Canary' to `Canaries'.
63# Omit common suffixes like `_Islands' and `_City', unless that
64# would lead to ambiguity. E.g. prefer `Cayman' to
65# `Cayman_Islands' and `Guatemala' to `Guatemala_City',
66# but prefer `Mexico_City' to `Mexico' because the country
67# of Mexico has several time zones.
68# Use `_' to represent a space.
69# Omit `.' from abbreviations in names, e.g. prefer `St_Helena'
70# to `St._Helena'.
45# To summarize, the following abbreviations seem to have some currency:
46# -1:00 WAT West Africa Time (no longer used)
47# 0:00 GMT Greenwich Mean Time
48# 2:00 CAT Central Africa Time
49# 2:00 SAST South Africa Standard Time
50# and Murray suggests the following abbreviation:
51# 1:00 WAT West Africa Time
52# I realize that this leads to `WAT' being used for both -1:00 and 1:00
53# for times before 1976, but this is the best I can think of
54# until we get more information.
71#
55#
72# For time zone abbreviations like `EST' I used the following rules,
73# in decreasing order of importance:
74#
75# Use abbreviations that consist of 3 or more upper-case Ascii letters,
76# except use "___" for locations while uninhabited.
77# Posix.1 requires at least 3 characters, and the restriction to
78# upper-case Ascii letters follows most traditions.
79# Previous editions of this database also used characters like
80# ' ' and '?', but these characters have a special meaning to
81# the shell and cause commands like
82# set `date`
83# to have unexpected effects. In theory, the character set could
84# be !%./@A-Z^_a-z{}, but these tables use only upper-case
85# Ascii letters (and "___").
86# Use abbreviations that are in common use among English-speakers,
87# e.g. `EST' for Eastern Standard Time in North America.
88# We assume that applications translate them to other languages
89# as part of the normal localization process; for example,
90# a French application might translate `EST' to `HNE'.
91# For zones whose times are taken from a city's longitude, use the
92# traditional xMT notation, e.g. `PMT' for Paris Mean Time.
93# The only name like this in current use is `GMT'.
94# If there is no common English abbreviation, abbreviate the English
95# translation of the usual phrase used by native speakers.
96# If this is not available or is a phrase mentioning the country
97# (e.g. ``Cape Verde Time''), then:
98#
99# When a country has a single or principal time zone region,
100# append `T' to the country's ISO code, e.g. `CVT' for
101# Cape Verde Time. For summer time append `ST';
102# for double summer time append `DST'; etc.
103# When a country has multiple time zones, take the first three
104# letters of an English place name identifying each zone
105# and then append `T', `ST', etc. as before;
106# e.g. `MOSST' for MOScow Summer Time.
107#
108#
109# For Africa I invented the following time zone abbreviations.
110# LMT Local Mean Time
111# -1:00 AAT Atlantic Africa Time (no longer used)
112# 0:00 WAT West Africa Time
113# 1:00 CAT Central Africa Time
114# 2:00 SAT South Africa Time
56# I invented the following abbreviations; corrections are welcome!
57# 2:00 WAST West Africa Summer Time
58# 2:30 BEAT British East Africa Time (no longer used)
59# 2:45 BEAUT British East Africa Unified Time (no longer used)
60# 3:00 CAST Central Africa Summer Time (no longer used)
61# 3:00 SAST South Africa Summer Time (no longer used)
115# 3:00 EAT East Africa Time
62# 3:00 EAT East Africa Time
116# The final `T' is replaced by `ST' for summer time, e.g. `SAST'.
117# BEAT is British East Africa Time, which was 2:30 before 1948 and 2:45 after.
63# 4:00 EAST East Africa Summer Time (no longer used)
