No contradiction: when summer time ends, 2am occurs twice, the web page is just not bothering to be clear about which one of those is the one that ends summer time. The legislation is. And the legislation is what I would expect, it is the same way. The way it is done in the US (and other places) the time 01:30 in a non-leap year occurs 366 times a year, and 02:30 only 364 times. The sane way (as apparently used in Mauritius, and Australia, and other places) has both of those (and all other times) occur 365 times in each no-leap year (and 366 in leap years of course). kre
