* Should /etc/zoneinfo/GMT0 change to /etc/zoneinfo/GMT, with the
necessary change to the newctime.3 manual page? If it is changed,
all the GMT0's can disappear from localtime.c.
* Should (a variant of) the old "etcetera" file be reinstated, to
ensure that folks in out-of-the-way places can do things such as
zic -l GMT5
to establish a reasonable approximation to their time zone as local
time?
* Gotta get "date.c" up to speed, and must conditionalize "logwtmp.c"
for the System V world.
In particular, how to handle ambiguous 10-character arguments to date
for the System V world. In particular, what about the
date 2415
stuff? And how to handle ambiguous 10-character arguments to date
such as
date 0102030405
where it's unclear whether the year is at the start (UCB style)
or the end (System V style)? Also--toss in a "-a" (adjust time)
or the end (System V style)? Also--toss in a "-a" (adjust tieme)
option for the Sun world?
* Could use a date manual page.
* Need to update the newctime.3 to describe the treatment of TZ's such
as "Guy Mean Time", if it's decided that the treatment is reasonable.
* Turn most everything into version "5.1".
