IANA Timezone Database Translation #25

Closed quinnj closed 10 years ago

quinnj commented 10 years ago

This is probably the biggest roadblock in my perspective before merging into Base. Up till now, I actually used a pre-generated layout of the tzinfo files, but I'm pretty sure we need something more sustainable and in our control long-term. @aviks, did you say you started some code to translate the olson database? I'm digging through the pytz package for inspiration, but it looks like this is a pain in the butt kind of task.

Implemented in the TimeZones.jl package.
