I'm wondering about the name android_tzdata. Is that a coined term?

Why is the modification time cached per location entry? They're all loaded from the same file, so shouldn't it be a global property?

IMO it is easier to reuse the same cache mechanism as the individual zoneinfo files

Thinking abou this, we might want to refactor the cache anyway.

I don't think android_tzdata is ever coined outside Android, or more precisely Bionic C
