It looks like the only changes from PostgreSQL's current data involve
Kyrgyzstan and Uruguay.  What's the policy on keeping the source
code up to date?  Does the data change too often to bother except
just before a release?

Yea, probably.


There's nothing magical about the files, is there? A user should be able to plug in a zic-compiled zone file from just about anywhere if they really need it, without having to update postgres, or I have badly misunderstood how we handle things. Of course, your OS might not come with such things (e.g. Windows), but it should not be a very big deal to obtain the file.
