Changes affecting documentation and commentary
The files solar87, solar88, and solar89 are no longer distributed.
They were a negative experiment -- that is, a demonstration that
tz data can represent solar time only with some difficulty and error.
Their presence in the distribution caused confusion, as Riyadh
civil time was generally not solar time in those years.
tz-link.htm now mentions Noda Time. (Thanks to Matt Johnson.)
