From a recent thread elsewhere (read with no subscription): Time Zone Database https://www.iana.org/time-zones https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2024-January/025094.html Since the next POSIX will require support for TZDB Zone names in the TZ environment variable, be more careful about phrases like “POSIX-like TZ strings” in comments and documentation. Call them “POSIX.1-2017-like TZ strings” instead, to make it clearer that they’re the traditional POSIX form like TZ='GMT0BST,M3.5.0/1,M10.5.0' instead of the TZDB form like TZ='Europe/London'.
Will z/OS follow this common convention (already used by Java)? If not, will Unix System Services UNIX branding expire? -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
