Russia may set clocks back one hour instead of going into DST
by Steffen Thorsen Feb. 3, 2010

Feb. 3, 2010

According to this article in Pravda, Russia might stop observing DST, and instead go back one hour in March to the time zones they were at until year 1930. http://english.pravda.ru/society/stories/03-02-2010/111995-time_zone-0 Best regards, Steffen Thorsen - timeanddate.com

Wrong DST rules for Mauritius
by Leonid A. Movsesjan Jan. 20, 2010

Jan. 20, 2010

Good day! There are two rules for Mauritius in current version of timezone/africa: Rule Mauritius 2008 max - Oct lastSun 2:00s 1:00 S Rule Mauritius 2009 max - Mar lastSun 2:00s 0 - It's wrong, because Mauritius used DST only in 2008/2009, prooflinks: http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/mauritius-daylight-saving-time.html http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/mauritius-dst-will-not-repeat.html So, rules should be: Rule Mauritius 2008 only - Oct lastSun 2:00s 1:00 S Rule Mauritius 2009 only - Mar lastSun 2:00s 0 - or something like that. -- Best regards, Leonid A. Movsesjan

I am asking for a way to give zdump a timezone, date and hour, so zdump (or other command) can give me the "isdst". Another way could be to give time zone (or Country and city), date and hour and get the UTC and "isdst". Should it be possible? Thanks in advance.
