Hi, refer to attached Timezone cannot find China

stangri commented 3 years ago

This comes from tz database, you should bring it up with ICANN if you want this changed.

@stangri Hi, thanks, I hope you/your openwrt could change this in further new release.

Like stangri said, the timezone names come from the globally standardised database, mandated by IANA / ICANN.

https://www.iana.org/time-zones

https://data.iana.org/time-zones/tz-link.html

Timezones are typically identified by continent or ocean and then by the name of the largest city within the region containing the clocks. For example, America/New_York represents most of the US eastern time zone; America/Phoenix represents most of Arizona, which uses mountain time without daylight saving time (DST);

The standard is to use city names, so there will not be "Asia/China"

Copy that, thanks.
