+This 1989 update of the time zone package features POSIXization (including
+interpretation of POSIX-style TZ environment variables, provided by Guy
+Harris), ANSIfication (including a version of "mktime"), corrections to some
+time zone data (including corrections to the rules for Great Britain and
+New Zealand), reference data from the United States Naval Observatory for
+folks who want to do additional time zones, and the 1989 data for Saudi Arabia.

 needed to make things right for your system.
 
-This version of the time zone software uses a new format
-(based on the work of Guy Harris, a.k.a guy@sun.UUCP)
-for the time zone information files.  They are now stored by default in a
-directory named "/etc/zoneinfo" rather than "/etc/tzdir" or "/etc/timezones"
-as before.  If you've already compiled programs with older time zone software,
-just leave the "/etc/tzdir" and/or "/etc/timezones" files around until you
-have a chance to recompile.
-
-For better compatability with other versions of time conversion functions,
-the time zone abbreviation to be used with localtime's return value is now
-pointed to by one of the two elements of the (char *) array tzname, rather
-than by the (char *) tz_abbr.  If you have code that uses tz_abbr, add a
-	-DTZA_COMPAT
-to the end of the
-	CFLAGS=
-line in "Makefile".
-
 To use the new functions, use a "-lz" option when compiling or linking.
