Thank you for your impressive reactivity. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-08 12:33:13] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ok, *now* I get it :) It will be fixed in the next run of the documentation build. Thanks for staying persistent. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-08 12:05:46] cyril at bouthors dot org Madagascar is an island in the Indian Ocean, hence the TZ region shortname "Indian". This is confusing but acceptable. The thing that is less acceptable about this country is the fact that the TZ databases clearly says "Africa" but PHP says "Asia": http://ch2.php.net/manual/en/timezones.asia.php ^^^^ says "List of timezones in the group Asia" ... "Indian/Antananarivo". Am I clear? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-08 11:54:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the database it is defined in the "africa" file as: # Madagascar # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] Zone Indian/Antananarivo 3:10:04 - LMT 1911 Jul 3:00 - EAT 1954 Feb 27 23:00s 3:00 1:00 EAST 1954 May 29 23:00s 3:00 - EAT No clue why they put it in the Indian group but it's not something we (as PHP team) can change. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-08 11:51:58] cyril at bouthors dot org Indian/Antananarivo is the capital city of Madagascar. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-08 11:31:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED] There isn't even a zone called Indian/Madagascar... so what are you talking about? (And keep this bug bogus) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
