The 2021d release of the tz code and data is available.

This release reflects the following changes, which were either 
circulated on the tz mailing list or are relatively minor technical or 
administrative changes:

   Briefly:
     Fiji suspends DST for the 2021/2022 season.
     'zic -r' marks unspecified timestamps with "-00".

   Changes to future timestamps

     Fiji will suspend observance of DST for the 2021/2022 season.
     Assume for now that it will return next year.  (Thanks to Jashneel
     Kumar and P Chan.)

   Changes to code

     'zic -r' now uses "-00" time zone abbreviations for intervals
     with UT offsets that are unspecified due to -r truncation.
     This implements a change in draft Internet RFC 8536bis.

PS. If your tzdata parser does not yet support negative DST offsets or 
times past 24:00, or if it insists on a 'pacificnew' file that is no 
longer present, this release's data entries can be turned into a 
rearguard-format tarball that should work even with these older parsers. 
This is intended to be a temporary transition aid for these parsers. To 
generate a rearguard-format tarball, obtain the full distribution as 
described above, and run the command 'make rearguard_tarballs' on a 
development host. Or you can run 'make rearguard.zi' to generate a 
single file that can be fed directly to a parser that works like 'zic'.
