Thanks very much for the detailed historical info about Alaska. May we have permission to adapt those comments for use in the "northamerica" file of the tz database?
Yes.
Also, do you happen to have the exact dates and times for the official transitions for Juneau in 1980? Also, how well did the change "take"? This would seem to be the most urgent correction to the existing database.
Based on the description in 45 FR 63494, 1980-09-25, I had assumed that the widely unpopular change never really took effect, except possibly on paper for a brief time. I will attempt to obtain exact dates and get back to you. Regards, DWF
