Corrigendum 1: Time zone and Date Format Pattern Correction

In CLDR version 1.3, the policy was that for a given (resolved) locale, uniqueness is required for time zone display names. That is, two different time zone IDs could not have the same display name. This policy turns out to be overly strict, and did not allow for customary names in cases where it does not cause a problem. The committee has relaxed this policy so that where the parsing results would give the same GMT offset, the standard and daylight display names can be the same across different time zone IDs.

The short and long time zone names for Europe/London and Europe/Dublin in the en.xml locale data file had been changed because of the old policy. In accordance with this new policy, they are corrected by this corrigendum as follows:

The data reflecting the above correction is checked into CVS under the tag release-1-3-C1. For information on the usage of this, see CLDR Releases (Downloads).

The following are corrections to the date format pattern in UTS #35: Locale Data Markup Language (LDML). The Stand-Alone months and days, and the long era names, although approved by the technical committee, had been omitted from the specification. The use of specific sequences of 'z', 'Z', and 'E' is changed to preserve backwards compatibility with Java.
