Sometimes, everyone is too busy to discuss a patch right now, but a
patch just left on R-devel may be eventually forgotten before there's
time for discussion. Try asking for a Bugzilla account (by following
the guide at <https://www.r-project.org/bugs.html>) and submitting the
patch there.

Thank you for verifying this. As far as I can tell, the file has always
contained both entries referring to "Asia/Taipei":

Instead ,  browse https://bugs.r-project.org<https://bugs.r-project.org/>
and didn't found where to registration and login, then send email to this
list.
will send a email to bug-report-request at r-project.org.
for two  entries in 
registryTZ.c<https://github.com/r-devel/r-svn/blame/22bf3a2cb1dd6844e69c9214d990bf438a485db7/src/extra/tzone/registryTZ.c>
, the China Standard Time is incorrect ,but Taipei Standard Tim is ok

Best regards,
Yu Gong
