# From Paul Eggert (2014-10-31): |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
# This file contains data outside the normal scope of the tz database, |
| 14 |
# in that its zones do not differ from normal tz zones after 1970. |
| 15 |
# Links in this file point to zones in this file, superseding links in |
| 16 |
# the file 'backward'. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
# Although zones in this file may be of some use for analyzing |
| 19 |
# pre-1970 time stamps, they are less reliable, cover only a tiny |
| 20 |
# sliver of the pre-1970 era, and cannot feasibly be improved to cover |
| 21 |
# most of the era. Because the zones are out of normal scope for the |
| 22 |
# database, less effort is put into maintaining this file. Many of |
| 23 |
# the zones were formerly in other source files, but were removed or |
| 24 |
# replaced by links as their data entries were questionable and/or they |
| 25 |
# differed from other zones only in pre-1970 time stamps. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
# Unless otherwise specified, the source for data through 1990 is: |
| 28 |
# Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), |
| 29 |
# San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). |
| 30 |
# Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
# This file is not intended to be compiled standalone, as it |
| 33 |
# assumes rules from other files. In the tz distribution, use |
| 34 |
# 'make PACKRATDATA=backzone zones' to compile and install this file. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
# Zones are sorted by zone name. Each zone is preceded by the |
| 37 |
# name of the country that the zone is in, along with any other |
| 38 |
# commentary and rules associated with the entry. |
| 39 |

# Ethiopia |
| 44 |
# From Paul Eggert (2014-07-31): |
| 45 |
# Like the Swahili of Kenya and Tanzania, many Ethiopians keep a |
| 46 |
# 12-hour clock starting at our 06:00, so their "8 o'clock" is our |
| 47 |
# 02:00 or 14:00. Keep this in mind when you ask the time in Amharic. |
| 48 |
# |
| 49 |
# Shanks & Pottenger write that Ethiopia had six narrowly-spaced time |
| 50 |
# zones between 1870 and 1890, that they merged to 38E50 (2:35:20) in |
| 51 |
# 1890, and that they switched to 3:00 on 1936-05-05. Perhaps 38E50 |
| 52 |
# was for Adis Dera. Quite likely the Shanks data entries are wrong |
| 53 |
# anyway. |

# America/Toronto. However, earlier versions of the tz database |

# mistakenly relied on data from Shanks & Pottenger saying that Quebec |
