# Time (GMT), in line with neighbor India.
# From Paul Eggert (2006-04-18):
# People who live in regions under Tamil control can use [TZ='Asia/Kolkata'],
# as that zone has agreed with the Tamil areas since our cutoff date of 1970.
! # From K Sethu (2006-04-25):
! # I think the abbreviation LKT originated from the world of computers at
! # the time of or subsequent to the time zone changes by SL Government
! # twice in 1996 and probably SL Government or its standardization
! # agencies never declared an abbreviation as a national standard.
! #
! # I recollect before the recent change the government announcements
! # mentioning it as simply changing Sri Lanka Standard Time or Sri Lanka
! # Time and no mention was made about the abbreviation.
! #
! # If we look at Sri Lanka Department of Government's "Official News
! # Website of Sri Lanka" ... http://www.news.lk/ we can see that they
! # use SLT as abbreviation in time stamp at the beginning of each news
! # item....
! #
! # Within Sri Lanka I think LKT is well known among computer users and
! # administrators. In my opinion SLT may not be a good choice because the
! # nation's largest telcom / internet operator Sri Lanka Telcom is well
! # known by that abbreviation - simply as SLT (there IP domains are
! # slt.lk and sltnet.lk).
! #
! # But if indeed our government has adopted SLT as standard abbreviation
! # (that we have not known so far) then it is better that it be used for
! # all computers.
!
! # From Paul Eggert (2006-04-25):
! # One possibility is that we wait for a bit for the dust to settle down
! # and then see what people actually say in practice.

! # zone nerd sources. I searched Google News and found three uses of
! # it in the International Business Times of India in February and
! # March of this year when discussing cricket match times, but nothing
! # since then (though there has been a lot of cricket) and nothing in
! # other English-language news sources. Our old abbreviation "LKT" is
! # even worse. For now, let's use a numeric abbreviation; we can
! # switch to "SLST" if it catches on.
