Changes to commentary Comments in zone tables have been improved. (Thanks to J William Piggott.) tzselect again limits its menu comments so that menus fit on a 24x80 alphanumeric display.

Change LIC_CHKSUM_FILES to License. Some files are BSD clause 3 Changes affecting build procedure An installer can now combine leap seconds with use of the backzone file, e.g., with 'make PACKRATDATA=backzone REDO=posix_right zones'. The old 'make posix_packrat' rule is now marked as obsolescent. (Thanks to Ian Abbott for an initial implementation.) Changes affecting documentation and commentary A new file LICENSE makes it easier to see that the code and data are mostly public-domain. (Thanks to James Knight.) The three non-public-domain files now use the current (3-clause) BSD license instead of older versions of that license. tz-link.htm mentions the BDE library (thanks to Andrew Paprocki), CCTZ (thanks to Tim Parenti), TimeJones.com, and has a new section on editing tz source files (with a mention of Sublime zoneinfo, thanks to Gilmore Davidson). The Theory and asia files now mention the 2015 book "The Global Transformation of Time, 1870-1950", and cite a couple of reviews. The America/Chicago entry now documents the informal use of US central time in Fort Pierre, South Dakota. (Thanks to Rick McDermid, Matt Johnson, and Steve Jones.)
