1# Links and zones for backward compatibility
2
3# This file is in the public domain, so clarified as of
4# 2009-05-17 by Arthur David Olson.
5
6# This file provides links from old or merged timezone names to current ones.
7# It also provides a few zone entries for old naming conventions.
8# Many names changed in 1993 and in 1995, and many merged names moved here
9# in the period from 2013 through 2022.  Several of these names are
10# also present in the file 'backzone', which has data important only
11# for pre-1970 timestamps and so is out of scope for tzdb proper.
12
13# Although this file is optional and tzdb will work if you omit it by
14# building with 'make BACKWARD=', in practice downstream users
15# typically use this file for backward compatibility.
16
17# This file is divided into sections, one for each major reason for a
18# backward compatibility link.  Each section is sorted by link name.
19
20# A "#= TARGET1" comment labels each link inserted only because some
21# .zi parsers (including tzcode through 2022e) mishandle links to links.
22# The comment says what the target would be if these parsers were fixed
23# so that data could contain links to links.  For example, the line
24# "Link Australia/Sydney Australia/ACT #= Australia/Canberra" would be
25# "Link Australia/Canberra Australia/ACT" were it not that data lines
26# refrain from linking to links like Australia/Canberra, which means
27# the Australia/ACT line links instead to Australia/Sydney,
28# Australia/Canberra's target.
