Hi Naoto,

Adjusting the data during import looks fine.

Typo:

TzdbZoneRulesProvider.java:504  "ususally" -> "usually"

Removing the source duplication is good.

Is there a way to remove the duplication of the TZDATA files themselves?
make/data/tzdata/* and test/jdk/sun/til/calendar/zi/*

Looks good,  Roger
