Changes affecting past time stamps
Iceland observed DST in 1919 and 1921, and its 1939 fallback
transition was Oct. 29, not Nov. 29. Remove incorrect data from
Shanks about time in Iceland between 1837 and 1908.
- A new zone, America/FCP_QRoo, for portions of the Mexican state of
- Quintana Roo which have observed Eastern Time without DST since 1998.
- (Thanks to Gwillim Law and Tim Parenti.)
-
Some more zones have been turned into links, when they differed
from existing zones only for older time stamps. As usual,
these changes affect UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only.

# From Tim Parenti (2015-01-18):
# A new zone for Felipe Carrillo Puerto (FCP) is needed which apparently did not
-# switch to Central Time on 1998-08-02 with Cancún and the rest of Quintana Roo state.
-# Assume that the reference to FCP "refus[ing] to change its time zone" since then
-# refers to a refusal to observe DST, putting it out of sync with Cancún during the
-# winter. Since there are multiple places within Mexico referred to as Felipe
-# Carrillo Puerto or Quintana Roo, use America/FCP_QRoo to refer to the municipio of
-# FCP inside the state of QRoo, abbreviating to stay under 14 characters.
-#
-# Since Cancún is shifting to EST without DST on 2015-02-01, this brings these regions
-# back into synchronicity with each other.
