Please have a look at this map of Asia: http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/middle_east_and_asia/asia_pol00.jpg and tell me where Madagascar is because I can't find it on the map. Madagascar must not appear in the section "Asia" of the timezone database. I agree with you on the fact it's not a documentation issue but a bug in the timezone database. I reassign this bug to the feature request category. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-07 07:01:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is how the timezone database is built, so that's how we document it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-07 06:47:11] mjsabby at gmail dot com Indian ocean has everything to with India.

Could you please put Madagascar NOT in the region Asia? Thanks. Expected result: ---------------- The Indian ocean should a region of the world by itself. For example, tzconfig shows: Please enter the number of the geographic area in which you live: 1) Africa 7) Australia 2) America 8) Europe 3) US time zones 9) Indian Ocean 4) Canada time zones 10) Pacific Ocean 5) Asia 11) Use System V style time zones 6) Atlantic Ocean 12) None of the above Actual result: -------------- Madagascar is listed in the region Asia ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38735&edit=1
