Unable to find time zone names America/St Barthelemy

[monove]

Any ideas?

You need an underscore where you have a space.

Uncaught Error: Unable to find time zone named America/St_Barthelemy
(WallTime 0.2.0)

I think this is because the America/St_Barthelemy rule is really a Link to America/Guadeloupe. I don't think I ever implemented link situations.

[robmadden]

Whatever @jgable says is right, so just listen to him.

[mattjohnsonpint]

Yep, that would do it as well. I'd recommend supporting links. Zones occasionally move to links upon new versions of tzdb.

[getaaron]

I agree with @robmadden

[monove]

But how would I get a link mapping?

[geedew]

@robmadden ...

+1 @getaaron

Why do I feel like I'm being hazed? You know what the real hazing was, when I had to write this monstrosity for handling timezones in the first place.

Shouldn't people be using http://momentjs.com/timezone/ by now? They really do a much better job at this and they have like a million tests.

Man, and this library is written in CoffeeScript, talk about nobody else being able to maintain it. I'm stuck with this thing for life.

"Moment Timezone has no data for America/St Barthelemy"

never mnd that, i missed the underscore

@jgable - Despite jumping on the moment.js / moment-timezone bandwagon, I've also tried to give fair credit to alternatives like walltime (and a few others). Believe me, I considered answering this issue with "just use moment instead" - but thought you guys would frown on that. Would you prefer we consider walltime discontinued and move along? Just askin'. :)

[jgable]

I think it would be relatively clear from looking at the commits/pulse graph that this library isn't being maintained. I'm no longer at Sprout Social so I can't speak for them, but I'd be +1 to putting a notice in the readme.

[soung3]

We're actually actively in the process of converting over to Moment.js at Sprout Social. We'll update the README to state the end of support, unless someone else wants to carry the torch.

[mattjohnsonpint]

Thanks for clarifying. If I can do anything to ease the transition, please let me know.
