Summary of changes in tzdata2014j (2014-11-10 17:37:11 -0800):
* Turks & Caicos' switch from US eastern time to UTC-4 year-round
did not occur on 2014-11-02 at 02:00.
* Many pre-1989 time stamps have been corrected for Asia/Seoul and
Asia/Pyongyang, based on sources for the Korean-language Wikipedia
entry for time in Korea.
* Some more zones have been turned into links, when they differed
from existing zones only for older (pre-1970) time stamps.
* Changes affecting commentary.
Summary of changes in tzdata2014i (2014-10-21 22:04:57 -0700):
* Pacific/Fiji will observe DST from 2014-11-02 02:00 to 2015-01-18 03:00.
* A new Zone Pacific/Bougainville, for the part of Papua New Guinea
that plans to switch from UTC+10 to UTC+11 on 2014-12-28 at 02:00.
* Since Belarus is not changing its clocks even though Moscow is,
the time zone abbreviation in Europe/Minsk is changing from FET
to its more-traditional value MSK on 2014-10-26 at 01:00.
* The new abbreviation IDT stands for the pre-1976 use of UT+8 in
Indochina, to distinguish it better from ICT (UT+7).
* Many time stamps have been corrected for Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh before 1976.
Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh has been added to zone1970.tab, to give tzselect
users in Vietnam two choices, since north and south Vietnam
disagreed after our 1970 cutoff.
* Asia/Phnom_Penh and Asia/Vientiane have been turned into links, as
they differed from existing zones only for older (pre-1970) time stamps.
* Changes affecting commentary.

e translation project
*** rename zh_tw to its proper zh_TW name
* Don't update when nothing has been deleted
* Backup resolv.conf to resolv.conf.bak when it doesn't have an openresolv
signature
Restore it when the new resolv.conf only has the openresolv signature
* Document prepend_search and prepend_nameservers
* Implement append_search and append_nameservers
* Implement replace and replace_sub to allow for keyword/value/replacement
* There is a new "stop-bits" option, which takes an argument of 1 or 2,
indicating the number of stop bits to use for async serial ports.
* Various bug fixes.
* Fixed a potential security issue in parsing option files (CVE-2014-3158).
* There is a new "stop-bits" option, which takes an argument of 1 or 2,
indicating the number of stop bits to use for async serial ports.
* Various bug fixes.
- ENHANCE: When executing a chain, require at least one service
function to succeed. This mitigates fail-open scenarios caused by
misconfigurations or missing modules.
- ENHANCE: Make sure to overwrite buffers which may have contained an
authentication token when they're no longer needed.
- BUGFIX: Under certain circumstances, specifying a non-existent
module (or misspelling the name of a module) in a policy could
result in a fail-open scenario. (CVE-2014-3879)
- FEATURE: Add a search path for modules. This was implemented in
Nummularia but inadvertently left out of the release notes.
- BUGFIX: The is_upper() predicate only accepted the letter A as an
upper-case character instead of the entire A-Z range. As a result,
service and module names containing upper-case letters other than A
would be rejected.

Guess that future years will use a similar pattern.

that plans to switch from UTC+10 to UTC+11 on 2014-12-28 at 02:00.

* dnsmasq subscriber no longer moans if it hasn't written a pidfile
* Ensure that name_server_blacklist works for more than one option.
Thanks to Frederic Barthelery.
* unbound_insecure can disable DNSSEC for all domains processed.
* local_nameservers now defaults to
127.* 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 ::1
and is used instead of a hard coded list.
* Allow the disabling of resolvconf or optionally an individual
subscriber.
* Don't wait around trying to create a lock if we don't have
permission.
* resolv_conf_passthrough=NULL will update resolv.conf to match
only what is configured in resolvconf.conf and ignore any
interface configuration.
