+#   Following section was added for tz database 2018a and 2018b.
+# ICU has a bug handling negative DST, and we also don't want to
+# flip sumer time name and winter time name for Dublin at least for
+# now. Because the change had major impacts to tz database external
+# consumers, the tz database maintainer once reverted the Europe/Dublin
+# rules (same as 2017c or older) in 2018c. The tz database maintainer
+# thinks the changes in 2018a should be brought back when external
+# tz database consumers are ready to adopt the change. We don't know
+# what CLDR TC want to do with this for now. But if tz database brings
+# back the change, and CLDR TC (and ICU TC) want to keep the display name
+# unchanged, then we can uncomment the block below to restore ICU
+# custom override. (Yoshito 2018-01-23)
+
+#
+# tzdata2018a changed Europe/Dublin to use IST (UTC+1) as the standard time
+# of the region, and GMT (UTC) as the daylight saving time with negative
+# offset (-1 hour) in winter. ICU SimpleTimeZone rejects a zone with negative
+# daylight saving time offset. We could remove the restriction in newer version
+# of ICU, but such data does not work well with older ICU runtime without
+# fixing the issue. For now, we define our own Europe/Dubin in ICU, replacing
+# Europe/Dublin data from the tz database.
