Sources for Time Zone and Daylight Saving Time Data
The public-domain time zone database contains code and data that represent the
history of local time for many representative locations around the globe. It is
updated periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to time zone
boundaries, UTC offsets, and daylight-saving rules. This database (often called
tz or zoneinfo) is used by several implementations, including the GNU C Library
used in GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Cygwin, DJGPP, AIX, Mac OS X,
OpenVMS, Oracle Database, Solaris, Tru64, and UnixWare.
(Conspicuous in its absence is any mention of IBM OSes.)
