Providing another library with 100% compatible API is interesting
idea, but the DateTime::TimeZone already exists and is used by some
existing projects and packages. This library is stable and reliable.

I'm the maintainer of DateTime::TimeZone , not the upstream developer.
I really don't want to completly redesign this library just because
the Debian already provides the Olson DB only as binary data.
Rewriting the library from scratch can't be harmless for its stability
and reliability.

I think this idea is just not realizable.

See also Bug#444866. I'm working on fixing the build script so it
could use tzdata source database. Still the Olson database will be
converted at build time but it should make the updates more easy.
