Description: Maps Windows timezone IDs to the standard TZIDs
This package maps Windows timezone names into standard TZID timezone names.
The mapping is extracted from the UNICODE data in:
 http://unicode.org/cldr/data/common/supplemental/supplementalData.xml
Installing the package will create the needed symbolic links
in /usr/share/zoneinfo.
-- cut -----------------------------------------------------------

rpmlint results: dangling-relative-symlink -- 91 times.
 * rpmlint is obviously wrong:
   - All these links point to the actual zoneinfo files.
   - These files are contained in the tzdata package
   - My package requires the tzdata package.

Legal questions:
 * The UNICODE xml data file has no copyright. I packaged the copyright file
   from the site -- http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html
   Is this the correct practice? Are there any other packages containing
   some UNICODE data? What do they do?
 * It looks as if the copyright allows free distribution of unmodified
   copies. Am I correct?
 * I wrote the perl script processing the UNICODE data (it's GPL'ed).
   Should we split the script and the data files to different packages
   (a bit absurd) just because they have different licensing?
