 When there has been a new release of Windows (probably including Service

+1. Consult the CLDR project's windowsZones.xml file, and add any zones

+   if there's more than one IANA zone listed.
+2. Run the script in src/tools/win32tzlist.pl on a Windows machine

+In either case, never remove any zone names that have disappeared from
+Windows, since we still need to match properly on older versions.
