Minor nit:

You should probably use the same text to describe the
contents of the
DHCP and DHCPv6 options. So either:

- - "IEEE 1003.1 String" or "TZ POSIX
String"
- - "Reference to the TZ Database" or "TZ
Database String"

I prefer the second, because it is used later in the text
where they are
described.

Minor suggestion:

In the section on deprecation, I find the following text
confusing:

                Implementations of the time offset IPv4
option SHOULD
   implement this option as well.  Others SHOULD instead
implement this
   option.

Perhaps something like:

"Current implementations that support the time offset
IPv4 option SHOULD
implement this option also. Other implementations SHOULD
implement this
option, and SHOULD NOT implement the time offset IPv4
option."


The draft looks very good!
