Thanks for the clarifications Kenneth. :) So, in this case (timezones) what sort of help/information do you require? I can try doing my bit to get things perfect.

Do let me know.

Regards,

I edit and SVG and export PNG files.

Let me clear up what I meant with my last comment, I think you
misunderstood:

I meant that in some cases we do not have the proper information to make
changes. Naturally, we want to get things right and we do appreciate all
the help we can get :-)

Bug description:
When installing Ubuntu, I have to select the timezone. I notice that the map of Kashmir is incorrectly positioned and does not reflect the political situation of the volatile region. Ubuntu must keep political scenarios in mind to produce neutrally-labelled maps. The United Nations also produces neutral maps.

So this should be displayed when displaying maps of India, Pakistan and China: (See reference map: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:India-states-numbered.svg)

* Select India (IST):
** India selected.
** Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh within India has a lighter shade
** Kashmir within Pakistan and China with an even lighter shade

* Select Pakistan (PST)
**Pakistan without Kashmir in standard shade
**Kashmir within Pakistan with a lighter shade

*Select China
**PRC standard shade
**PRC with Kashmir lighter shade
**PRC with Arunachal Pradesh with an even lighter shade.

Hope you can implement this in Ubuntu 9.10
