Hi,

Not sure if this is the correct forum....
I have installed openJDK8 on a Debian linux. I was comparing my new JRE with an older version (openjdk6) and I see that I don't have bunch of timezone files.

Here is the old one

./jre/lib/zi/CST6CDT
./jre/lib/zi/SystemV/
./jre/lib/zi/SystemV/PST8PDT
./jre/lib/zi/SystemV/AST4
etc, etc

I read something about Sun no longer including tzupdator and timezone files....what is OpenJDK's position on this issue? If openjdk8 does not include TimeZone, how do I incorporate them into my JRE and JDK? Is there another upstream maintainer of TZs?

thanks
Medi
