For a current time zone data used by YaST, see the file timezone_raw.ycp (under /usr/share/YaST2/data or country/timezone/data in svn). It's a map of regions, each with a submap of the time zone names.
Why is this data in ycp format instead on some data format that can be read from ycp?.
To be simply-maintainable and to simply generate translations I guess. I don't remember anyone using the data anywhere else. So as the data were used only from YaST (I hadn't known they weren't) it was/is the easies way. YaST developers usually don't implement something in the hardest way they could imagine just to show how great hackers they are :) ;) Lukas
