Again changes in Chile...
by Horst H. von Brand March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

It has just been decreed that the change will now be the first Saturday of May, returning to normal time on the second Saturday of October. See <http://www.horaoficial.cl/cambio.htm> (the text is confusing, as it says the change will take place as stated "or as the competent authorities indicate", but radio and other news are announcing the stated dates). Noise at the political level indicates that DST could be abolished for the future. Sorry, I'm not familiar enough with the rules to fix this properly. And there is little time left to fix this. -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 2654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 2654239 Casilla 110-V, Valparaiso, Chile 2340000 Fax: +56 32 2797513

FW: Chile - Daylight Saving Time extension in 2011

I'm forwarding this message from Pablo Jiménez, who is not on the time zone mailing list. Those of you who are on the list, please direct replies appropriately. (I've already let Pablo know that references and proposed changes have been received from others.) --ado -----Original Message----- From: Pablo Jiménez [mailto:pablo.jimenez@vtr.cl] Sent: Monday, March 28, 2011 10:23 To: Olson, Arthur David (NIH/NCI) [E] Cc: Cristian Gonzalez Fluxa Subject: Re: Chile - Daylight Saving Time extension in 2011 Mr. Olson, Thank you very much. It will sound as a joke, but it seems the Chilean Government it's going to extend again this year the Daylight Saving Time and there's also a modification for the beginning of DST from October to August. And everything is on a mere experimental guise that will be evaluated in March 2012. I'll send you the references and appropriate patches as soon as possible.

Chile extends daylight saving time again
by Steffen Thorsen March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

Chile will extend DST again, this time to (the end of) 2011-05-07. They will also start DST early, third Saturday in August, which probably means they will turn their clocks forward when the mainland enter Sunday, 2011-08-21.

What is time being called in Russia now?
by Olson, Arthur David (NIH/NCI) [E] March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

Now that the clocks have sprung forward, can anyone with a presence in Russia report on whether they are calling current time "daylight" or "summer" or "standard"? Thanks for any light you can shed. (Remember that computer outputs are poor to use for this purpose; they're often based on the time zone database.) --ado

Chile changes the DST change AGAIN
by Glenn Eychaner March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

The article: http://diario.elmercurio.com/2011/03/28/_portada/_portada/noticias/7565897A… In English: Chile's clocks will go back an hour this year on the 7th of May instead of this Saturday. They will go forward again the 3rd Saturday in August, just as before 1968. This is a pilot plan which will be reevaluated in 2012. Sigh. Thanks, -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

Asia/Irkutsk split
by alexander.ray＠internode.on.net March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

In the time zone change Russia took this March, Irkutsk Oblast began using Krasnoyarsk Time while Buryatia didn't, so a split of Asia/Irkutsk is in order, creating Asia/UlanUde (?). Additionally, the elves at Wikipedia have discovered that Tomsk Oblast didn't change to Omsk Time at the same time as Novosibirsk Oblast. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_Russia#Tz_database Source (in Russian) http://newsru.com/russia/01may2002/clock.html
