Ok, as a non-DD, I was not familar with this method of reading the
changelog.
"Changelog" in my meaning was the content of the "changelog.txt" file,
which is available on http://packages.debian.org/source/sid/tzdata
via the link on the right side (Debian changelog), which links to
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/t/tzdata
There, the 2011j-1 is missing (among others).
That said, I downloaded the tzdata source package and watched
the changelog which is included in the package, and: indeed, there
2011j-1 is available.
So, this is completely a www issue.
Sorry Aurelien for wasting your time.

Thus Aurelien in CC now.
