Tom Lane 6960277270 Semi-automatically detect changes in timezone abbreviations.
Add an option to zic.c to dump out all non-obsolete timezone abbreviations
defined in the Olson database.  Comparing this list to its previous state
will clue us in when something happens that we may need to account for in
the tznames/ time zone abbreviation lists.  The README file's previous
exhortation to "just grep for differences" was completely useless advice,
in my now-considerable experience; but maybe this will be a bit more
useful.  As a starting point I built the same list from the tzdata files
as they existed in 2006, which is committed here as known_abbrevs.txt.
Comparison indeed turned up quite a few changes we had neglected to account
for, which I will commit separately.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
