If there are no problems, the ftp site will be updated on 2010-11-01. --ado ------- australasia ------- *** /tmp/geta22811 Tue Oct 26 17:01:05 2010 --- /tmp/getb22811 Tue Oct 26 17:01:05 2010 *************** *** 1,5 **** # <pre> ! # @(#)australasia 8.19 # This file is in the public domain, so clarified as of # 2009-05-17 by Arthur David Olson. --- 1,5 ---- # <pre> ! # @(#)australasia 8.20 # This file is in the public domain, so clarified as of # 2009-05-17 by Arthur David Olson. *************** *** 284,289 **** --- 284,302 ---- # http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/fiji-dst-ends-march-2010.html # </a> + # From Alexander Krivenyshev (2010-10-24): + # According to Radio Fiji and Fiji Times online, Fiji will end DST 3 + # weeks earlier than expected - on March 6, 2011, not March 27, 2011... + # Here is confirmation from Government of the Republic of the Fiji Islands, + # Ministry of Information (fiji.gov.fj) web site: + # <a href="http://www.fiji.gov.fj/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2608:daylight-savings&catid=71:press-releases&Itemid=155"> + # http://www.fiji.gov.fj/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2608:day... + # </a> + # or + # <a href="http://www.worldtimezone.com/dst_news/dst_news_fiji04.html"> + # http://www.worldtimezone.com/dst_news/dst_news_fiji04.html + # </a> + # Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S Rule Fiji 1998 1999 - Nov Sun>=1 2:00 1:00 S Rule Fiji 1999 2000 - Feb lastSun 3:00 0 - *************** *** 290,296 **** Rule Fiji 2009 only - Nov 29 2:00 1:00 S Rule Fiji 2010 only - Mar lastSun 3:00 0 - Rule Fiji 2010 only - Oct 24 2:00 1:00 S !
