-Version 1.2.5 - 4-Feb-2018
---------------------------
-
-* Support recursively (deep) freezing Country and Timezone instances. #80.
-* Allow negative daylight savings time offsets to be derived when reading from
-  zoneinfo files. The utc_offset and std_offset are now derived correctly for
-  Europe/Dublin in the 2018a and 2018b releases of the Time Zone Database.
-
-
-Version 1.2.4 - 26-Oct-2017
----------------------------
-
-* Ignore the leapseconds file that is included in zoneinfo directories installed
-  with version 2017c and later of the Time Zone Database.
-
-
-Version 1.2.3 - 25-Mar-2017
----------------------------
-
-* Reduce the number of String objects allocated when loading zoneinfo files.
-  #54.
-* Make Timezone#friendly_identifier compatible with frozen string literals.
-* Improve the algorithm for deriving the utc_offset from zoneinfo files. This
-  now correctly handles Pacific/Apia switching from one side of the
-  International Date Line to the other whilst observing daylight savings time.
-  #66.
-* Fix an UnknownTimezone exception when calling transitions_up_to or
-  offsets_up_to on a TimezoneProxy instance obtained from Timezone.get_proxy.
-* Allow the Factory zone to be obtained from the Zoneinfo data source.
-* Ignore the /usr/share/zoneinfo/timeconfig symlink included in Slackware
-  distributions. #64.
-* Fix Timezone#strftime handling of %Z expansion when %Z is prefixed with more
-  than one percent. #31.
-* Support expansion of %z, %:z, %::z and %:::z to the UTC offset of the time
-  zone in Timezone#strftime. #31 and #67.
-
-
-Version 1.2.2 - 8-Aug-2014
---------------------------
-
-* Fix an error with duplicates being returned by Timezone#all_country_zones
-  and Timezone#all_country_zone_identifiers when used with tzinfo-data
-  v1.2014.6 or later.
-* Use the zone1970.tab file for country timezone data if it is found in the
-  zoneinfo directory (and fallback to zone.tab if not). zone1970.tab was added
-  in tzdata 2014f. zone.tab is now deprecated.
-
-
-Version 1.2.1 - 1-Jun-2014
---------------------------
-
-* Support zoneinfo files generated with zic version 2014c and later.
-* On platforms that only support positive 32-bit timestamps, ensure that
-  conversions are accurate from the epoch instead of just from the first
-  transition after the epoch.
-* Minor documentation improvements.
-
-
-Version 1.2.0 - 26-May-2014
----------------------------
-
-* Raise the minimum supported Ruby version to 1.8.7.
-* Support loading system zoneinfo data on FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris.
-  Resolves #15.
-* Add canonical_identifier and canonical_zone methods to Timezone. Resolves #16.
-* Add a link to a DataSourceNotFound help page in the TZInfo::DataSourceNotFound
-  exception message.
-* Load iso3166.tab and zone.tab files as UTF-8.
-* Fix Timezone#local_to_utc returning local Time instances on systems using UTC
-  as the local time zone. Resolves #13.
-* Fix == methods raising an exception when passed an instance of a different
-  class by making <=> return nil if passed a non-comparable argument.
-* Eliminate "require 'rational'" warnings. Resolves #10.
-* Eliminate "assigned but unused variable - info" warnings. Resolves #11.
-* Switch to minitest v5 for unit tests. Resolves #18.
-
-
-Version 1.1.0 - 25-Sep-2013
----------------------------
-
-* TZInfo is now thread safe. ThreadSafe::Cache is now used instead of Hash
-  to cache Timezone and Country instances returned by Timezone.get and
-  Country.get. The tzinfo gem now depends on thread_safe ~> 0.1.
-* Added a transitions_up_to method to Timezone that returns a list of the times
-  where the UTC offset of the timezone changes.
-* Added an offsets_up_to method to Timezone that returns the set of offsets
-  that have been observed in a defined timezone.
-* Fixed a "can't modify frozen String" error when loading a Timezone from a
-  zoneinfo file using an identifier String that is both tainted and frozen.
-  Resolves #3.
-* Support TZif3 format zoneinfo files (now produced by zic from tzcode version
-  2013e onwards).
-* Support using YARD to generate documentation (added a .yardopts file).
-* Ignore the +VERSION file included in the zoneinfo directory on Mac OS X.
-* Added a note to the documentation concerning 32-bit zoneinfo files (as 
-  included with Mac OS X).
-
-
-Version 1.0.1 - 22-Jun-2013
----------------------------
-
-* Fix a test case failure when tests are run from a directory that contains a
-  dot in the path (issue #29751).
-
-
-Version 1.0.0 - 2-Jun-2013
---------------------------
-
-* Allow TZInfo to be used with different data sources instead of just the
-  built-in Ruby module data files.
-* Include a data source that allows TZInfo to load data from the binary
-  zoneinfo files produced by zic and included with many Linux and Unix-like
-  distributions.
-* Remove the definition and index Ruby modules from TZInfo and move them into
-  a separate TZInfo::Data library (available as the tzinfo-data gem).
-* Default to using the TZInfo::Data library as the data source if it is 
-  installed, otherwise use zoneinfo files instead.
-* Preserve the nanoseconds of local timezone Time objects when performing 
-  conversions (issue #29705).
-* Don't add the tzinfo lib directory to the search path when requiring 'tzinfo'.
-  The tzinfo lib directory must now be in the search path before 'tzinfo' is
-  required.
-* Add utc_start_time, utc_end_time, local_start_time and local_end_time instance
-  methods to TimezonePeriod. These return an identical value as the existing
-  utc_start, utc_end, local_start and local_end methods, but return Time
-  instances instead of DateTime.
-* Make the start_transition, end_transition and offset properties of
-  TimezonePeriod protected. To access properties of the period, callers should
-  use other TimezonePeriod instance methods instead (issue #7655).

-Version 0.3.0 (tzdata v2006g) - 17-Jul-2006
--------------------------------------------
-
-* New timezone data format. Timezone data now occupies less space on disk and
-  takes less memory once loaded. #4142, #4144.
-* Timezone data is defined in modules rather than classes. Timezone instances 
-  returned by Timezone.get are no longer instances of data classes, but are
-  instead instances of new DataTimezone and LinkedTimezone classes.
-* Timezone instances can now be used with Marshal.dump and Marshal.load. #4240.
-* Added a Timezone.get_proxy method that returns a TimezoneProxy object for a 
-  given identifier.
-* Country index data is now defined in a single module that is independent
-  of the Country class implementation.
-* Country instances can now be used with Marshal.dump and Marshal.load. #4240.
-* Country has a new zone_info method that returns CountryTimezone objects
-  containing additional information (latitude, longitude and a description) 
-  relating to each Timezone. #4140.
-* Timezones within a Country are now returned in an order that makes 
-  geographic sense.
-* The zdumptest utility now checks local to utc conversions in addition to
-  utc to local conversions.
-* eql? method defined on Country and Timezone that is equivalent to ==.
-* The == method of Timezone no longer raises an exception when passed an object
-  with no identifier method.
-* The == method of Country no longer raises an exception when passed an object
-  with no code method.
-* hash method defined on Country that returns the hash of the code.
-* hash method defined on Timezone that returns the hash of the identifier.
-* Miscellaneous API documentation corrections and improvements.
-* Timezone definition and indexes are now excluded from rdoc (the contents were
-  previously ignored with #:nodoc: anyway).
-* Removed no longer needed #:nodoc: directives from timezone data files (which
-  are now excluded from the rdoc build).
-* Installation of the gem now causes rdoc API documentation to be generated. 
-  #4905.
-* When optimizing transitions to generate zone definitions, check the
-  UTC and standard offsets separately rather than just the total offset to UTC.
-  Fixes an incorrect abbreviation issue with Europe/London, Europe/Dublin and 
-  Pacific/Auckland.
-* Eliminated unnecessary .nil? calls to give a minor performance gain.
-* Timezone.all and Timezone.all_identifiers now return all the 
-  Timezones/identifiers rather than just those associated with countries. #4146.
-* Added all_data_zones, all_data_zone_identifiers, all_linked_zones and
-  all_linked_zone_identifiers class methods to Timezone.
-* Added a strftime method to Timezone that converts a time in UTC to local
-  time and then returns it formatted. %Z is replaced with the Timezone 
-  abbreviation for the given time (for example, EST or EDT). #4143.
-* Fix escaping of quotes in TZDataParser. This affected country names and
-  descriptions of timezones within countries.
-
-
-Version 0.2.2 (tzdata v2006g) - 17-May-2006
--------------------------------------------
-
-* Use class-scoped instance variables to store the Timezone identifier and 
-  singleton instance. Loading a linked zone no longer causes the parent
-  zone's identifier to be changed. The instance method of a linked zone class
-  also now returns an instance of the linked zone class rather than the parent
-  class. #4502.
-* The zdumptest utility now compares the TZInfo zone identifier with the zdump
-  zone identifier.
-* The zdumptestall utility now exits if not supplied with enough parameters.
-* Updated to tzdata version 2006g
-  (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.time.tz/1008).
-
-
-Version 0.2.1 (tzdata v2006d) - 17-Apr-2006
--------------------------------------------
-
-* Fix a performance issue caused in 0.2.0 with Timezone.local_to_utc. 
-  Conversions performed on TimeOrDateTime instances passed to <=> are now
-  cached as originally intended. Thanks to Michael Smedberg for spotting this.
-* Fix a performance issue with the local_to_utc period search algorithm 
-  originally implemented in 0.1.0. The condition that was supposed to cause
-  the search to terminate when enough periods had been found was only being
-  evaluated in a small subset of cases. Thanks to Michael Smedberg and 
-  Jamis Buck for reporting this.
-* Added abbreviation as an alias for TimezonePeriod.zone_identifier.
-* Updated to tzdata version 2006d
-  (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.time.tz/936).
-* Ignore any offset in DateTimes passed in (as is already done for Times).
-  All of the following now refer to the same UTC time (15:40 on 17 April 2006). 
-  Previously, the DateTime in the second line would have been interpreted 
-  as 20:40.
-  
-    tz.utc_to_local(DateTime.new(2006, 4, 17, 15, 40, 0))
-    tz.utc_to_local(DateTime.new(2006, 4, 17, 15, 40, 0).new_offset(Rational(5, 24)))
-    tz.utc_to_local(Time.utc(2006, 4, 17, 15, 40, 0))
-    tz.utc_to_local(Time.local(2006, 4, 17, 15, 40, 0))
-
-
-Version 0.2.0 (tzdata v2006c) - 3-Apr-2006
-------------------------------------------
-
-* Use timestamps rather than DateTime objects in zone files for times between
-  1970 and 2037 (the range of Time).
-* Don't convert passed in Time objects to DateTime in most cases (provides 
-  a substantial performance improvement).
-* Allow integer timestamps (time in seconds since 1970-1-1) to be used as well 
-  as Time and DateTime objects in all public methods that take times as 
-  parameters.
-* Tool to compare TZInfo conversions with output from zdump.
-* TZDataParser zone generation algorithm rewritten. Now based on the zic code.
-  TZInfo is now 100% compatible with zic/zdump output.
-* Riyadh Solar Time zones now included again (generation time has been reduced
-  with TZDataParser changes).
-* Use binary mode when writing zone and country files to get Unix (\n) new
-  lines.
-* Omit unnecessary quotes in zone identifier symbols.
-* Omit the final transition to DST if there is a prior transition in the last
-  year processed to standard time.
-* Updated to tzdata version 2006c
-  (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.time.tz/920).
-
-
-Version 0.1.2 (tzdata v2006a) - 5-Feb-2006
-------------------------------------------
-
-* Add lib directory to the load path when tzinfo is required. Makes it easier
-  to use tzinfo gem when unpacked to vendor directory in rails. 
-* Updated to tzdata version 2006a 
-  (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.time.tz/738).
-* build_tz_classes rake task now handles running svn add and svn delete as new 
-  timezones and countries are added and old ones are removed.
-* Return a better error when attempting to use a Timezone instance that was
-  constructed with Timezone.new(nil). This will occur when using Rails'
-  composed_of. When the timezone identifier in the database is null, attempting
-  to use the Timezone will now result in an UnknownTimezone exception rather 
-  than a NameError.
-
-
-Version 0.1.1 (tzdata v2005q) - 18-Dec-2005
--------------------------------------------
-
-* Timezones that are defined by a single unbounded period (e.g. UTC) now 
-  work again.
-* Updated to tzdata version 2005q.
-
-
-Version 0.1.0 (tzdata v2005n) - 27-Nov-2005
--------------------------------------------
-
-* period_for_local and local_to_utc now allow resolution of ambiguous
-  times (e.g. when switching from daylight savings to standard time). 
-  The behaviour of these methods when faced with an ambiguous local time
-  has now changed. If you are using these methods you should check
-  the documentation. Thanks to Cliff Matthews for suggesting this change.
-* Added require 'date' to timezone.rb (date isn't loaded by default in all
-  environments).
-* Use rake to build packages and documentation.
-* License file is now included in gem distribution.
-* Dates in definitions stored as Astronomical Julian Day numbers rather than
-  as civil dates (improves performance creating DateTime instances).
-* Added options to TZDataParser to allow generation of specific zones and
-  countries.
-* Moved TimezonePeriod class to timezone_period.rb.
-* New TimezonePeriodList class to store TimezonePeriods for a timezone and
-  perform searches for periods.
-* Timezones now defined using blocks. TimezonePeriods are only instantiated
-  when they are needed. Thanks to Jamis Buck for the suggestion.
-* Add options to TZDataParser to allow exclusion of specific zones and 
-  countries.
-* Exclude the Riyadh Solar Time zones. The rules are only for 1987 to 1989 and
-  take a long time to generate and process. Riyadh Solar Time is no longer
-  observed.
-* The last TimezonePeriod for each Timezone is now written out with an
-  unbounded rather than arbitrary end time.
-* Construct the Rational offset in TimezonePeriod once when the TimezonePeriod
-  is constructed rather than each time it is needed.
-* Timezone and Country now keep a cache of loaded instances to avoid running
-  require which can be slow on some platforms.
-* Updated to tzdata version 2005n.
-
-
-Version 0.0.4 (tzdata v2005m) - 18-Sep-2005
--------------------------------------------
-
-* Removed debug output accidentally included in the previous release.
-* Fixed a bug in the generation of friendly zone identifiers (was inserting
-  apostrophes into UTC, GMT, etc).
-* Fixed Country <=> operator (was comparing non-existent attribute)
-* Fixed Timezone.period_for_local error when period not found.
-* Added testcases for Timezone, TimezoneProxy, TimezonePeriod, Country and
-  some selected timezones.
-
-  
-Version 0.0.3 (tzdata v2005m) - 17-Sep-2005
--------------------------------------------
-
-* Reduced visibility of some methods added in Timezone#setup and Country#setup.
-* Added name method to Timezone (returns the identifier).
-* Added friendly_identifier method to Timezone. Returns a more friendly version
-  of the identifier.
-* Added to_s method to Timezone. Returns the friendly identifier.
-* Added == and <=> operators to Timezone (compares identifiers).
-* Timezone now includes Comparable.
-* Added to_s method to Country.
-* Added == and <=> operators to Country (compares ISO 3166 country codes).
-* Country now includes Comparable.
-* New TimezoneProxy class that behaves the same as a Timezone but doesn't
-  actually load in its definition until it is actually required.
-* Modified Timezone and Country methods that return Timezones to return
-  TimezoneProxy instances instead. This makes these methods much quicker.
-  
-  In Ruby on Rails, you can now show a drop-down list of all timezones using the
-  Rails time_zone_select helper method:
-  
-  <%= time_zone_select 'user', 'time_zone', TZInfo::Timezone.all.sort, :model => TZInfo::Timezone %>
-
-
-Version 0.0.2 (tzdata v2005m) - 13-Sep-2005 
--------------------------------------------
-
-* Country and Timezone data is now loaded into class rather than instance 
-  variables. This makes Timezone links more efficient and saves memory if
-  creating specific Timezone and Country classes directly.
-* TimezonePeriod zone_identifier is now defined as a symbol to save memory
-  (was previously a string).
-* TimezonePeriod zone_identifiers that were previously '' are now :Unknown.
-* Timezones and Countries can now be returned using Timezone.new(identifier)
-  and Country.new(identifier). When passed an identifier, the new method
-  calls get to return an instance of the specified timezone or country.
-* Added new class methods to Timezone to return sets of zones and identifiers.
