wake island time zone
in the time zone text files, each time zone has one or more "zone lines" in one of the time zone text files. the first zone line for a time zone gives the name of the time zone; any subsequent zone lines for that time zone leave the name blank, indicating that they apply to the same zone as the previous line. each zone line for a zone specifies, for a range of date and time, the offset to utc for standard time, the name of the set of rules that govern daylight saving time (or a hyphen if standard time always applies), the format for time zone abbreviations, and, for all but the last zone line, the date and time at which the range of date and time governed by that line ends.
