2.01 2018-04-09
- Add new time zone for Sao Tome Standard Time.
- Mark Morocco Standard Time as a known bad time zone for author testing due to the
way Microsoft implements time changes for Ramadan when testing future times in August.
2.00 2018-02-27
- Remove Namibia Standard Time and Turks And Caicos Standard Time from the list
of known bad time zones now that Microsoft has released updates to those zones.
- Calculate Windows times in tests using using TZI registry value for time changes
before comparing to the same time changes calculated in IANA.
1.99 2017-12-13
- Add new time zone for Sudan Standard Time.
- Calculate Windows time offsets from TZI value rather than Display.
- Month displayed in test results changed to match month being tested.
- Add known bad time zones for author testing as Microsoft has not fully adopted
changes for Namibia Standard Time and Turks And Caicos Standard Time. The zones
will work correctly, but the test won't recognize that times are the same
in both IANA and on Windows.
1.98 2017-04-26
- Adjust tests to calculate daylight time offsets in different months to avoid
making those calculations during Ramadan, as Daylight Savings Time is suspended
in Morocco during Ramadan.
1.97 2017-04-15
- Add new time zone for Magallanes Standard Time.
1.96 2017-03-16
- Add new time zones for Saratov Standard Time and UTC+13.

- Removed known bad time zone for author testing as time is now fixed.
- Updated documentation to reflect newer operating systems.
1.93 2016-08-13
- Run certain tests only during automated testing to avoid user test failures
should time zones change before the module is updated.
- Build changes to improve CPANTS Kwalitee score.
1.92 2016-08-12
- Correct test failure when running as Administrator on Windows when using older
versions of DateTime::TimeZone. RT 116909.

- Fix files missing warning on install.
1.86 2015-12-13
- Add support for new time zone in North Korea.
- Reorganize tests so that many tests can run with only read access to the
registry. Currently, most testers have all tests skipped because they are
not running as an Administrator during testing.
- Add internal method to read Windows to IANA hash so as to enable testing for
those with only read access to the registry.
1.85 2015-06-27
- Change compile test to an author test due to possibility of
DateTime::TimeZone::Local not being present. Patch by Dave Rolsky.

before any tests are run.
1.83 2015-06-22
- Remove prerequisite to DateTime::TimeZone::Local and DateTime.
- Update tests to run conditionally on presence of DateTime::TimeZone::Local
and DateTime.
- Require maintainer tests to work only on a recent build of DateTime::TimeZone.
- Rename references to Olson to IANA as the current maintainer of the tz database.
- Modify prerequisite versions for some modules.
1.82 2015-02-19
- Add support for upcoming Windows time zone update for March 2015, which
will have a new time zone for Mexico.
- Require latest DateTime-TimeZone-Local to ensure Windows mappings
map to existing IANA time zones.

character in time zone name. Patch in main code by Stuart Watt and for
test by Tom Koelman. RT #68607 & 70989.
- Fix maintainer test to appropriate test time zones in current time, not
historical time.
1.80 2014-11-16
- This is the initial release creating a separate distribution for
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32. As a result, additional changes specific
to the Windows platform should be made more often.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Earlier changes are a subset of the Win32-related changes from DateTime-TimeZone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.78 2014-11-05
- Fix warnings from Perl 5.8.8 and before. Apparently it doesn't like when
$SIG{__DIE__} is set to undef. Patch by Peter Rabbitson. GitHub PR #88.
1.77 2014-11-04
- Updated the mapping of Windows -> IANA time zones. Patch by David
Pinkowitz. RT #10025.
- Replaced Class::Load with Module::Runtime, and replaced eval with Try::Tiny.
1.55 2012-11-30
- Updated mapping from Win32 to Olson time zone names. Patch by Andrey
Makhnutin. RT #81456.
1.36 2011-08-29
- This release is based on version 2011i of the Olson database. This release
includes a new zone for South Sudan (Africa/Juba) and changes for Samoa,
Kaliningrad (Russia), Alaska, Hawaii, Newfoundland/Labrador (Canada), and
Resolute Bay.
- Require ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.58+. This fixes an installation problem on
Windows.
1.31 2011-03-18
- Updates for Win32 time zones. Patch by David Pinkowitz.

December 2009 Cumulative Time Zone Update from Microsoft. Patch by David
Pinkowitz. RT #52978.
0.98 2009-09-11
- Fixes for Win32 time zones. Added handling for new Windows time zones,
thanks to Jim Brunette. This should fix test failures on some Win32 systems.
0.85 2009-03-16
- This release is based on version 2009c of the Olson database. The
only changes in this release are for Cuba.
- Fixes for Win32 with Microsoft's December time zone update. This
updated added a zone for Mauritius that wasn't accounted for in the
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32 module. Reported by David
Pinkowitz. RT #43535.
- Added a hack to fix some brokenness with Module::Build::Compat that
causes the compatibility Makefile.PL to fail on really old
ExtUtils::MakeMaker versions (6.17 and older). RT #43605.
0.8301 2008-11-07
- Test fixes only. The 19local-win32 tried to skip tests when they're
run without write access to the registry, but this was done in a
very broken way.
0.83 2008-10-27
- This release is based on version 2008i of the Olson database. The
major changes in this release are for Argentina.
- Updated the docs on how the local time zone is determined for
various platforms.

handling on Windows. Based on a patch from David Pinkowitz.
* There are no code changes in this release besides these test
changes.
0.77 2008-05-27
- This release is based on version 2008c of the Olson database. The
major changes in this release are for Morocco, Mongolia, and
Pakistan.
- More Windows changes from David Pinkowitz. Determining the local
time zone on a Win32 system should now work regardless of the
system's locale. Previously it only worked for English language
systems. RT #36201.
0.76 2008-05-18
* Dropped support for Perl 5.005.
- Made the Win32 local time zone bits work on Vista and Server
2008. Patch by David Pinkowitz. RT #35733.
0.75 2008-04-25
- A stray STORABLE_attach method in DT::TZ::Floating caused freezing
and thawing a floating timezone with Storable to fail
badly. Reported by Kostas Chatzikokolakis.
- Changed the local time zone detection on Win32 to only require read
access to the registry. Patch by David Pinkowitz. RT #35273.
0.6904 2007-11-09
- Updated the Windows -> Olson conversion table, though it's still
English-only. Added some more Win32 tests to hopefully help diagnose
a test failure report from a Win32 tester.
0.6903 2007-11-08
- The Win32::TieRegistry prereq was requiring version 1.0, which
doesn't exist. I meant to require just any version. Reported by
CJM. RT #30580.
- No code changes in this release.
0.6902 2007-11-05
- Fixed many sloppy uses of eval blocks which would leave $@ set after
calling various DT::TZ methods/functions. This could cause unrelated
error checking to find $@ set to something and log an error or
die. Reported by Kat.
0.6901 2007-11-02
- Add Win32::TieRegistry to our prereqs if we're on Win32. Reported by
Ruud H.G. van Tol.
0.61 2007-02-18
- Lots of internal changes in the code used to determine a system's
local time zone.
- As a result, we now have a much better method for doing this on
Windows systems, by looking at the registry. See
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32 for details.
