The Olson data indicates that there was a previous use of DST in 2002. If that didn't happen, it needs fixing to give correct historic information. It has had data for 2008 since May 19th, although it looks like they could do with more official information; if the transition time is actually 00:01:00 local wall clock time, rather than 00:00:00 please submit a correction, and if possible include a copy of, or a link to, an official document - English would be better, but I'm sure they would be able to find someone who can read Urdu (the submission information is at the top of the relevant file (asia) - it doesn't require supporting documents, but I can't see that they will do any harm: ========================================= # From Arthur David Olson (2008-05-19): # XXX--midnight transitions is a guess; 2008 only is a guess. # Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S Rule Pakistan 2002 only - Apr Sun>=2 0:01 1:00 S Rule Pakistan 2002 only - Oct Sun>=2 0:01 0 - Rule Pakistan 2008 only - Jun 1 0:00 1:00 S Rule Pakistan 2008 only - Sep 1 0:00 0 - ========================================= "man zic", on a system that supports Olson data, tells you how to interpret the files and how to create new binary versions. The Microsoft article also gives information for manually updating Windows for the Pakistan change. I believe they are using 00:00:00 as the transition time. It looks like neither Pakistan nor Morocco has considered computer useres in the timing of the announcement of the DST legislation. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
