Probably in the next week or so. I could potentially hold this one off, but one of the timezones in Russia is changing at short notice and we do have a sizeable number of users in Russia. https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2020-December/029607.html It sounds like the timezone is changing on 27 December 2020 (argh) but we won't know for sure until next week (argh argh). Given that tzdata imports are exceedingly trivial, perhaps this is actually a best-case first import to try out the process? Happy to coordinate with you guys.
