Dear timezone data maintainers, and Zakaria, I'm maintainer of timezone related package in Debian Project[1]. I got the following report from Zakaria <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

He suggested that the current LTM for Jakarta, Pontianak, Makassar and Jayapura should be modified to the new LTM as follows: Name: offset current LTM new LTM Asia/Jakarta UTC+7 WIT WIB Asia/Pontianak UTC+7 WIT WIB Asia/Makassar UTC+8 CIT WITA Asia/Jayapura UTC+9 EIT WIT Searching on Internet about these names, I find the various page say these new LTMs instead of the current LTM described in tzdata. So I request you to apply this proposal. Unfortunatelly the pages which Zakaria pointed out in above mail are not accessible nowadays. Zakaria, if you know another public documents about Indonesia timezones, please let us know.
