From the release notes:
Changes affecting near-future time stamps
Egypt's 2014 Ramadan-based transitions are June 26 and July 31 at 24:00.
(Thanks to Imed Chihi.) Guess that from 2015 on Egypt will temporarily
switch to standard time at 24:00 the last Thursday before Ramadan, and
back to DST at 00:00 the first Friday after Ramadan.
Similarly, Morocco's are June 28 at 03:00 and August 2 at 02:00. (Thanks
to Milamber Space Network.) Guess that from 2015 on Morocco will
temporarily switch to standard time at 03:00 the last Saturday before
Ramadan, and back to DST at 02:00 the first Saturday after Ramadan.
Changes affecting past time stamps
The abbreviation "MSM" (Moscow Midsummer Time) is now used instead of
"MSD" for Moscow's double daylight time in summer 1921. Also, a typo
"VLASST" has been repaired to be "VLAST" for Vladivostok summer time
in 1991. (Thanks to Hank W. for reporting the problems.)

There are no substantive changes to the data in this release. I'm applying
this just for completeness.

From the release notes:
Changes affecting near-future time stamps
Egypt observes DST starting 2014-05-15 at 24:00.
(Thanks to Ahmad El-Dardiry and Gunther Vermier.)
Details have not been announced, except that DST will not be
observed during Ramadan. Guess that DST will stop during the same
Ramadan dates as Morocco, and that Egypt's future spring and fall
transitions will be the same as 2010 when it last observed DST,
namely April's last Friday at 00:00 to September's last Thursday at
23:00 standard time. Also, guess that Ramadan transitions will be
at 00:00 standard time.

Changes affecting near-future time stamps
Crimea switches to Moscow time on 2014-03-30 at 02:00 local time.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev.) Move its zone.tab entry from UA
to RU.
New entry for Troll station, Antarctica. (Thanks to Paul-Inge
Flakstad and Bengt-Inge Larsson.) This is currently an
approximation; a better version will require the zic and localtime
fixes mentioned [in the full release notes], and the plan is to wait
for a while until at least the zic fixes propagate.

for the heads-up, and to Tim Parenti for simplifying the update.)
Changes affecting past time stamps
Fiji ended DST on 2014-01-19 at 02:00, not the previously-scheduled
03:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Ukraine switched from Moscow to Eastern European time on 1990-07-01
(not 1992-01-01), and observed DST during the entire next winter.
(Thanks to Vladimir in Moscow via Alois Treindl.)
In 1988 Israel observed DST from 04-10 to 09-04, not 04-09 to
09-03. (Thanks to Avigdor Finkelstein.)

Changes affecting current and future time stamps:
Libya has switched its time zone back to UTC+2 without DST,
instead of UTC+1 with DST. (Thanks to Even Scharning.)
Western Sahara (Africa/El_Aaiun) uses Morocco's DST rules.
(Thanks to Gwillim Law.)
Changes affecting future time stamps:
Acre and (we guess) western Amazonas will switch from UTC-4 to UTC-5
on 2013-11-10. This affects America/Rio_Branco and America/Eirunepe.
(Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Add entries for DST transitions in Morocco in the year 2038.
This avoids some year-2038 glitches introduced in 2013g.
(Thanks to Yoshito Umaoka for reporting the problem.)

From the release notes:
Changes affecting near-future time stamps
This year Fiji will start DST on October 27, not October 20.
(Thanks to David Wheeler for the heads-up.) For now, guess that
Fiji will continue to spring forward the Sunday before the fourth
Monday in October.
Changes affecting time stamps before 1970
Pacific/Johnston is now a link to Pacific/Honolulu. This corrects
some errors before 1947.
Some zones have been turned into links, when they differ from
existing zones only in older data that was likely invented or that
differs only in LMT or transition from LMT. These changes affect
only time stamps before 1943. The affected zones are:
Africa/Juba, America/Anguilla, America/Aruba, America/Dominica,
America/Grenada, America/Guadeloupe, America/Marigot,
America/Montserrat, America/St_Barthelemy, America/St_Kitts,
America/St_Lucia, America/St_Thomas, America/St_Vincent,
America/Tortola, and Europe/Vaduz. (Thanks to Alois Treindl for
confirming that the old Europe/Vaduz zone was wrong and the new
link is better for WWII-era times.)
Change Kingston Mean Time from -5:07:12 to -5:07:11. This affects
America/Cayman, America/Jamaica and America/Grand_Turk time stamps
from 1890 to 1912.
Change the UT offset of Bern Mean Time from 0:29:44 to 0:29:46.
This affects Europe/Zurich time stamps from 1853 to 1894. (Thanks
to Alois Treindl).
Change the date of the circa-1850 Zurich transition from 1849-09-12
to 1853-07-16, overriding Shanks with data from Messerli about
postal and telegraph time in Switzerland.
Data changes affecting behavior of tzselect and similar programs
Country code BQ is now called the more-common name "Caribbean Netherlands"
rather than the more-official "Bonaire, St Eustatius & Saba".
Remove from zone.tab the names America/Montreal, America/Shiprock,
and Antarctica/South_Pole, as they are equivalent to existing
same-country-code zones for post-1970 time stamps. The data for
these names are unchanged, so the names continue to work as before.

Changes affecting future time stamps:
Morocco's midsummer transitions this year are July 7 and August 10,
not July 9 and August 8. (Thanks to Andrew Paprocki.)
Israel now falls back on the last Sunday of October.
(Thanks to Ephraim Silverberg.)
Changes affecting past time stamps:
Specify Jerusalem's location more precisely; this changes the pre-1880
times by 2 s.
Changing affecting metadata only:
Fix typos in the entries for country codes BQ and SX.

From the release notes:
Changes affecting current and future time stamps:
Palestine observed DST starting March 29, 2013. (Thanks to
Steffen Thorsen.) From 2013 on, Gaza and Hebron both observe DST,
with the predicted rules being the last Thursday in March at 24:00
to the first Friday on or after September 21 at 01:00.
Assume that the recent change to Paraguay's DST rules is permanent,
by moving the end of DST to the 4th Sunday in March every year.
(Thanks to Carlos Raúl Perasso.)
Changes affecting past time stamps:
Fix some historical data for Palestine to agree with that of
timeanddate.com, as follows:
The spring 2008 change in Gaza and Hebron was on 00:00 Mar 28, not
00:00 Apr 1.
The fall 2009 change in Gaza and Hebron on Sep 4 was at 01:00, not
02:00.
The spring 2010 change in Hebron was 00:00 Mar 26, not 00:01 Mar 27.
The spring 2011 change in Gaza was 00:01 Apr 1, not 12:01 Apr 2.
The spring 2011 change in Hebron on Apr 1 was at 00:01, not 12:01.
The fall 2011 change in Hebron on Sep 30 was at 00:00, not 03:00.
Fix times of habitation for Macquarie to agree with the Tasmania
Parks & Wildlife Service history, which indicates that permanent
habitation was 1899-1919 and 1948 on.
Changing affecting metadata only:
Macquarie Island is politically part of Australia, not Antarctica.
(Thanks to Tobias Conradi.)
Sort Macquarie more-consistently with other parts of Australia.
(Thanks to Tim Parenti.)

Haiti uses US daylight-saving rules this year, and presumably future years.
This changes time stamps starting today. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Paraguay will end DST on March 24 this year.

Morocco does not observe DST during Ramadan;
try to predict Ramadan in Morocco as best we can.

Libya moved to CET [2012-11-11], but with DST planned [2013].
(Thanks to Even Scharning, Steffen Thorsen, and Tim Parenti.)
I also had to change the script to cope with:
Signatures now have the extension .asc, not .sign, as that's more
standard. (Thanks to Phil Pennock.)

The factory file (and Factory time zone) was meant as a way to say
"not configured" that would give a clear error when running date(1).
For us it would just look like UTC, so it is of no value.

This upgrade involved rewriting the script; the data has moved to ftp.iana.org,

From the release notes:
africa
Summer time changes for Morocco (to start late April 2012)
asia
Changes for 2012 for Gaza & the West Bank (Hebron) and Syria
northamerica
Haiti following US/Canada rules for 2012 (and we're assuming,
for now anyway, for the future).
Also include a change made internally to the 'generate' script as part of
the tzdata2011m update that apparently never made it to AOSP; the original
checkin comment for which was:
Update to tzdata2011m.
Fixes for Europe/Tiraspol (Moldova) and all four Ukrainian zones.
Also show the MD5 of the downloaded data, for comparison against the MD5
given in the announcement mails. (There's a plan to move to proper signing,
but that's not implemented on their end yet.)
(I'm repeating the tzdata change for the convenience of anyone grepping the
log, since the 2012 tzdata releases also contain the 2011m changes; 2011m
is the only missing release I noticed.)

ZoneCompactor was using the system time zone database to get the offsets
instead of using the data it was compiling, so for newly added or recently
changed zones the index could be inconsistent with the data.
