Bug#580744: tzsetup: suggestions for renaming of timezones/locations
Package: tzsetup
Severity: minor, patch
I want to suggest renaming two timezones/locations:
rename "Noronha" to "Fernando de Noronha"
since that is the correct, complete name of the island.
Links on the web:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_de_Noronha
http://www.noronha.pe.gov.br/
http://www.noronha.com.br/english/history.htm
rename "Ponape" to "Pohnpei"
Pohnpei (formerly known as Ponape) is one of the states of the
Federated States of Micronesia. Since 1984 it is called Pohnpei.
Links on the web:

http://www.itl.nist.gov/fipspubs/co-codes/fm.txt
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pohnpei
Alternatively you could write "Pohnpei (Ponape)", if you want
to keep the old name for historical reasons.
Greetings
Holger
