The offical Chilean web site for time change now confirms that the time change will occur on April 26: http://www.horaoficial.cl/cambio_hora.html Thus, the current time zone files are accurate. -G.

Chile Time Change
by Glenn Eychaner Feb. 19, 2014

Feb. 19, 2014

That much notice would be a blessing. In years before 2013, the changes were made with as little as 5 days notice (notice Monday for a change in the date scheduled for the following Saturday). And as I said before, we have a goverment change on March 11, so all bets are off. -G.

Re: [tz] Chile to end DST earlier this year?
by Glenn Eychaner Feb. 18, 2014

Feb. 18, 2014

Nothing official has been announced at: http://www.horaoficial.cl/cambio_hora.html A quick search of newspapers for 'horario de invierno' also turns up nothing. However, keep in mind that Chile is in the midst of a government change; the inauguration of the new government is 11 March, and IIRC if the old government does nothing, the time change reverts to the old rule (March 8). I have no idea what to do about this. I knew making the new rule permanent would cause trouble. -G.
