Comment # 10 on bug 1179871 from Mark���ta Machov���

Nobody cares? Well, then...

I didn't ask the people, but from the recent heated discussion in tz mailing
list I grasped few things:
1. Maintainers don't like to introduce new links and rather delete them (so we
are on our own here).
2. Many programs using the tz database (especially the ones written in/for
java) don't respect any links anyway.
3. The database is inconsistent in many ways, but every attempt to fix it hits
the wall.

So it only confirms the things Marguerite wrote. But I think trying to fix jira
would be hopeless (because java). Chromium could still be saved, but we need
maintainers insight to it.
