[Bug 179885] Re: Capital of Ecuador needs to be added to the Time Zone settings
Yes, América/Guayaquil is the right timezone for Quito and should be more than enough. I remember seeing Guayaquil and not Quito when installing GNU/Linux and having the feeling that Quito should be there, but I have to agree with Martin's comment regarding the size of a city and how known it is in the outside world. Guayaquil is by far the biggest city in the country, and although I love Quito and would like to see it in the map, I think we should keep a global view in this issue and just leave things as they are. Quito is the capital. Guayaquil is the biggest city, Galapagos need no introduction. One nation, 2 timezones, no need to have a third point of reference.

In final Ubuntu 8.04, you can select South America - Ecuqador - Quito in the clock applet, which assigns it to time zone Amerika/Guayaquil. Is that the correct time zone for Quito? -- Capital of Ecuador needs to be added to the Time Zone settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 179885] Re: Capital of Ecuador needs to be added to the Time Zone settings
I already replied to Martin Pitt via e-mail, but I don't see it posted yet; therefore, I'd like to comment in reference to what Martin posted here. Quito along with the Galapagos Islands are the most representative sites of Ecuador, and Quito in addition to being the political capital, it is also the economic capital of Ecuador. This alone should be enough to have Quito listed in the tzdata db, but to give you a good reason that relates to time zones, see what Wikipedia says in reference to Quito: Because of its location at the equator, Quito does not experience variations in daylight hours during the course of a year. Except for a few minutes resulting from a slight wobble in the earth as it rotates, sunrise and sunset are always at 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., respectively. -- Capital of Ecuador needs to be added to the Time Zone settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The time zone database does not always list the captital of a country, especially if there is another city which is much bigger and known better. Do you have a city which appears in the tzdata db and is close to you? ** Changed in: tzdata (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Capital of Ecuador needs to be added to the Time Zone settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
