   5    5  # people in areas not otherwise covered by the tz files could "zic -l"
   6    6  # to a time zone that was right for their area.  These days, the
   7    7  # tz files cover almost all the inhabited world, and the only practical
   8    8  # need now for the entries that are not on UTC are for ships at sea
   9    9  # that cannot use POSIX TZ settings.

       11 +# Starting with POSIX 1003.1-2001, the entries below are all
       12 +# unnecessary as settings for the TZ environment variable.  E.g.,
       13 +# instead of TZ='Etc/GMT+4' one can use the POSIX setting TZ='<-04>+4'.
       14 +#
       15 +# Do not use a POSIX TZ setting like TZ='GMT+4', which is four hours
       16 +# behind GMT but uses the completely misleading abbreviation "GMT".

  29      -# We use POSIX-style signs in the Zone names and the output abbreviations,
       36 +# Be consistent with POSIX TZ settings in the Zone names,
  30   37  # even though this is the opposite of what many people expect.
  31   38  # POSIX has positive signs west of Greenwich, but many people expect
  32   39  # positive signs east of Greenwich.  For example, TZ='Etc/GMT+4' uses
  33      -# the abbreviation "GMT+4" and corresponds to 4 hours behind UT
       40 +# the abbreviation "-04" and corresponds to 4 hours behind UT
  34   41  # (i.e. west of Greenwich) even though many people would expect it to
  35   42  # mean 4 hours ahead of UT (i.e. east of Greenwich).
  36      -#
  37      -# In the draft 5 of POSIX 1003.1-200x, the angle bracket notation allows for
  38      -# TZ='<GMT-4>+4'; if you want time zone abbreviations conforming to
  39      -# ISO 8601 you can use TZ='<-0400>+4'.  Thus the commonly-expected
  40      -# offset is kept within the angle bracket (and is used for display)
  41      -# while the POSIX sign is kept outside the angle bracket (and is used
  42      -# for calculation).
  43      -#
  44      -# Do not use a TZ setting like TZ='GMT+4', which is four hours behind
  45      -# GMT but uses the completely misleading abbreviation "GMT".

  53   50  # so we moved the names into the Etc subdirectory.
