tzdata
________________________________________________________________________________

The tz database is a collaborative compilation of information about the world's
time zones, primarily intended for use with computer programs and operating
systems. Paul Eggert is its current editor and maintainer, with the
organizational backing of ICANN. The tz database is also known as tzdata, the
zoneinfo database or IANA time zone database, and occasionally as the Olson
database, referring to the founding contributor, Arthur David Olson. [0]
