Release 2016f - 2016-07-05 16:26:51 +0200
Changes affecting future time stamps
The Egyptian government changed its mind on short notice, and
Africa/Cairo will not introduce DST starting 2016-07-07 after all.
(Thanks to Mina Samuel.)
Asia/Novosibirsk switches from +06 to +07 on 2016-07-24 at 02:00.
(Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Changes to past and future time stamps
Asia/Novokuznetsk and Asia/Novosibirsk now use numeric time zone
abbreviations instead of invented ones.
Changes affecting past time stamps
Europe/Minsk's 1992-03-29 spring-forward transition was at 02:00 not 00:00.
(Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Release 2016e - 2016-06-14 08:46:16 -0700
Changes affecting future time stamps
Africa/Cairo observes DST in 2016 from July 7 to the end of October.
Guess October 27 and 24:00 transitions. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
For future years, guess April's last Thursday to October's last
Thursday except for Ramadan.
Changes affecting past time stamps
Locations while uninhabited now use '-00', not 'zzz', as a
placeholder time zone abbreviation. This is inspired by Internet
RFC 3339 and is more consistent with numeric time zone
abbreviations already used elsewhere. The change affects several
arctic and antarctic locations, e.g., America/Cambridge_Bay before
1920 and Antarctica/Troll before 2005.
Asia/Baku's 1992-09-27 transition from +04 (DST) to +04 (non-DST) was
at 03:00, not 23:00 the previous day. (Thanks to Michael Deckers.)
Changes to code
zic now outputs a dummy transition at time 2**31 - 1 in zones
whose POSIX-style TZ strings contain a '<'. This mostly works
around Qt bug 53071 <https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-53071>.
(Thanks to Zhanibek Adilbekov for reporting the Qt bug.)
Changes affecting documentation and commentary
tz-link.htm says why governments should give plenty of notice for
time zone or DST changes, and refers to Matt Johnson's blog post.
tz-link.htm mentions Tzdata for Elixir. (Thanks to Matt Johnson.)

Use UT (with time zone abbreviation 'zzz') for locations while
uninhabited. The 'zzz' mnemonic is that these locations are,
in some sense, asleep.
Use UT (with time zone abbreviation '-00') for locations while
uninhabited. The leading '-' is a flag that the time
zone is in some sense undefined; this notation is
derived from Internet RFC 3339.
Application writers should note that these abbreviations are ambiguous
