In my opinion RFC 6557 was an attempt to document some of the details 
about the "TZ Database" and it is self-contained except for two 
explicit references about the work.  A lot of stuff is left to the 
discretion of the TZ coordinator.  There are some guidelines to allow 
resolution if there is an extreme case.
