| Subject: | Missing Windows time zone alias for Morocco Standard Time |

I recently installed Date-Manip 6.20 on my laptop running Windows XP
SP3. When I tried to use the module, however, I received the error
"ERROR: Date::Manip unable to determine Time Zone." I dug a little bit,
and found that my time zone as set in the Windows registry is "Morocco
Standard Time", but Date-Manip has no alias for that name (it should map
to Africa/Casablanca). I modified Zones.pm by hand to add the correct
alias and now it works correctly. The permanent fix would be to add the
line:
"Morocco Standard Time" => [ qw(alias Africa/Casablanca) ],
to the internal/data.alias.pl file.
Hope this helps,
