It sounds like what's wanted is more a table like this:<br>
<br>
Africa/Abidjan GMT0<br>
Africa/Accra GMT0<br>
Africa/Algiers CET-1<br>
Africa/Bissau GMT0<br>
Africa/Cairo EET-2<br>
Africa/Casablanca WET0WEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3<br>
Africa/Ceuta CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3<br>
...<br>
<br>
where the first column is the TZ name, and the second is the prediction of the future behavior of clocks in the corresponding location, in nearly-POSIX TZ string format. We don't distribute a table like that now, though I suppose we could generate one automatically from the information that is already there.<br>
