+Release 2026a - 2026-04-22 23:06:43 -0700
+
+  Briefly:
+    British Columbia moved to permanent -07 on 2026-03-09.
+    Some more overflow bugs have been fixed in zic.
+
+  Changes to future timestamps
+
+    British Columbia’s 2026-03-08 spring forward was its last
+    foreseeable clock change, as it moved to permanent -07 thereafter.
+    (Thanks to Arthur David Olson.)  Although the change to permanent
+    -07 legally took place on 2026-03-09, temporarily model the change
+    to occur on 2026-11-01 at 02:00 instead.  This works around a
+    limitation in CLDR v48.2 (2026-03-17).  This temporary hack is
+    planned to be removed after CLDR is fixed.
+
+  Changes to code
+
+    zic no longer mishandles a last transition to a new time type.
+
+    zic no longer overflows a buffer when generating a TZ string like
+    "PST-167:59:58PDT-167:59:59,M11.5.6/-167:59:59,M12.5.6/-167:59:59",
+    which can occur with adversarial input.  (Thanks to Naveed Khan.)
+
+    zic no longer generates a longer TZif file than necessary when
+    an earlier time zone abbreviation is a suffix of a later one.
+    As a nice side effect, zic no longer overflows a buffer when given
+    a long series of abbreviations, each a suffix of the next.
+    (Buffer overflow reported by Arthur Chan.)
+
+    zic no longer overflows an int when processing input like ‘Zone
+    Ouch 2147483648:00:00 - LMT’.  The int overflow can lead to buffer
+    overflow in adversarial cases.  (Thanks to Naveed Khan.)
+
+    zic now checks for signals more often.

 # We have no further details, so omit them for now.
 
+# From Arthur David Olson (2026-03-02):
+# B. C. Gov News: “Adopting permanent daylight saving time: ‘Spring forward’
+# on March 8 will be the last time change, ending twice-yearly clock changes.”
+# https://news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2026AG0013-000209
+#
+# From Paul Eggert (2026-03-07):
+# The law says that 21 hours after the usual 2026-03-08 02:00 switch from
+# PST to PDT, the next day inaugurates the new standard time Pacific Time,
+# i.e., just one clock change but two name changes separated by 21 hours.
+# PT, the obvious abbreviation for Pacific Time, is one letter too short
+# to conform to TZDB’s (and POSIX’s) [-+[:alnum:]]{3,6} requirements.
+# I asked the BC government for advice, with no response. For now, do this:
+#   1.	As a temporary hack, pretend that the BC law takes effect
+#	not on 2026-03-09 at 00:00, but on 2026-11-01 at 02:00.
+#	This pretense works around a limitation in CLDR v48.2 (2026-03-17),
+#	which would otherwise say the interval uses “Pacific Standard Time”.
+#	(Below, this temporary hack is marked “Temporary hack; see above.”)
+#	Strictly speaking this hack is incorrect since the interval uses
+#	standard time, but it does have the right UT offset and it
+#	works around the CLDR limitation.  We should be able to remove
+#	the temporary hack after CLDR is fixed.
+#   2.	After the BC law takes effect, model the time as MST sans DST.
+#	We can change this later if another conforming non-numeric abbreviation
+#	for Pacific Time becomes more popular.  Possibilities include:
+#   MST - the most compatible with existing software and practice,
+#	and already used in parts of BC and in Yukon
+#   PDT - almost as software-friendly, but confusing because it implies
+#	it is DST and is paired with PST, whereas PT is standard time
+#   PST - straightforward but even more confusing,
+#	and will likely break much software that assumes PST is -08
+#   -07 - accurate and clear in itself, but makes BC look odd vs neighbors
+#   CPT, CPST - for Canadian Pacific (Standard) Time,
+#	by analogy with AEST in Australia
+#   P-T - conforming approximation to “PT”
+#   PT+ - like P-T but suggesting one-hour advance over PST
+
+# From Chris Walton (2026-03-15):
+# The Regional District of East Kootenay is planning to move to year-round
+# Mountain Standard Time (MST) on November 1, 2026....
+# https://www.rdek.bc.ca/news/entry/rdek_board_moves_to_transition_to_year_round_mountain_standard_time
+# (2026-03-17):
+# The final decision East Kootenay made a few days ago may turn out not to
+# be final after all. They are going to reopen the debate next month!
+# https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/what-time-is-it-in-the-east-kootenay-debate-9.7132624
+# From Paul Eggert (2026-03-17):
+# Mayor Steve Fairbairn of Elkford asked the question be called a second time,
+# saying, “Pardon the pun, but this is not a time-sensitive issue.”
+# For now, merely mention the potential change in these comments.
+# If it happens it would likely affect clocks starting 2027-03-14 at 02:00.
