In the case of TZ, there is no single authority other than, as is
being posited in the Internet discussions of unique nomenclature for
zones, IANA.

And in cases like that of Hugo Chavez with Venezuela last year,
even the authority can be sorely confused.
Which is why non-repudiable *is* a good idea.

What would IANA have done in the case of Venezuela?
Issue an update and then a week later issue another update?
