Is there still time to slip this into the upcoming 8.2.5?

I haven't been able to find anything which specifies precisely when it'll
happen though. Just knowing the week or even day isn't enough.


There is latest info

http://www.worldtimezone.com/dst_news/dst_news_venezuela02.html

but I think until Olson database will not be updated, we can do nothing. Maybe 
put some info on webpage.

PS: Can we add information about Olson database version somewhere (e.g 
Readme in src/timezone directory, or in Release notes?
