Hi Jeff,

Thanks for staying on top of this.  We've issued a new Excedrin headache
# for the Windows side of things.

Subject: [HP3000-L] TZTAB update

Hi all,

We've updated the TZTAB page on Jazz at:
http://jazz.external.hp.com/TZTAB/
Here is the relevant text:

PDATE 5 March 2007:The TZTAB file available for download here has been
updated! The changes included in this file are:

    * Atlantic (AST4ADT) and Newfoundland (NST3:30NDT) Timezones now
include the U.S. 2007 DST definitions.
    * Also added, for compatibility reasons only are the AST4ADT#CANADA
and NST3:30NDT#CANADA Timezones which are identical to AST4ADT and
NST3:30NDT respectively.
    * The Aleutian (AST10ADT) and Yukon Timezones (YST9YDT) now include
the 2007 U.S. 2007 DST definitions.
    * A Western Australia Timezone (WST-8WDT) has been added covering
the trial period 2007 though 31 March 2009 while Daylight Saving Time
(or Summer Time) is evaluated. Note that if Western Australia
permanently adopts Daylight Saving Time the TZTAB file will need to be
adjusted accordingly.
    * The Canadian versions of the standard North American Timezones for
Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific, i.e. EST5EDT#CANADA,
CST6CDT#CANADA, MST7MDT#CANADA and PST8PDT#CANADA have been updated to
recognize the 2007 definitions. These are now interchangeable with
EST5EDT, CST6CDT, MST7MDT and PST8PDT respectively.
    * Since Mexico will not adhere to the U.S. 2007 Daylight Saving Time
definitions new timezone definitions for Mexico have been added, they
are:
          o CSM6CDM or CST6CDT#MEXICO - Mexico Central Timezone
          o MSM7MDM or MST7MDT#MEXICO - Mexico Mountain Timezone
          o PSM8PDM or PST8PDT#MEXICO - Mexico Pacific Timezone
          o MXST6MXDT or MXST6MXDT#MEXICO - Mexico City, Mexico Timezone

It is recommended that you install this updated copy of TZTAB at your
earliest convenience.

LBCMXY5 will soon be available from ITRC Please see "MPE Patches
Replacing TZTAB" below for more details.
