Mon Aug 15 23:58:04 UTC 2022
* Makefile, newctime.3, theory.html:
* tz-art.html, tz-link.html, tzfile.5:
Update some citations and remove a duplicate URL.
Prefer https: to http: where either will do. Mention upcoming
POSIX changes re tm_gmtoff and tm_zone. Shorten some citations
when year will do. Shorten tz-link title. Proper POSIX tar
format actually started in 2022a, not 1999g. Mention SOFA license.
* NEWS: Reword and add a "Briefly".
