+ Briefly:
+ Palestine transitions are now Saturdays at 02:00.
+ Simplify three Ukraine zones into one.
+
+ Changes to future timestamps
+
+ Palestine now springs forward and falls back at 02:00 on the
+ first Saturday on or after March 24 and October 24, respectively.
+ This means 2022 falls back 10-29 at 02:00, not 10-28 at 01:00.
+ (Thanks to Heba Hamad.)
+
+ Changes to past timestamps
+
+ Simplify three Ukraine zones to one, since the post-1970
+ differences seem to have been imaginary. Move Europe/Uzhgorod and
+ Europe/Zaporozhye to 'backzone'; backward-compatibility links
+ still work, albeit with different timestamps before October 1991.

+
+ Briefly:
+ Work around awk bug in FreeBSD, macOS, etc.
+ Improve tzselect on intercontinental Zones.
+
+ Changes to code
+
+ Work around a bug in onetrueawk that broke commands like
+ 'make traditional_tarballs' on FreeBSD, macOS, etc.
+ (Problem reported by Deborah Goldsmith.)
+
+ Add code to tzselect that uses experimental structured comments in
+ zone1970.tab to clarify whether Zones like Africa/Abidjan and
+ Europe/Istanbul cross continent or ocean boundaries.
+ (Inspired by a problem reported by Peter Krefting.)
+
+ Fix bug with 'zic -d /a/b/c' when /a is unwritable but the
+ directory /a/b already exists.
+
+ Remove zoneinfo2tdf.pl, as it was unused and triggered false
+ malware alarms on some email servers.
