A mess indeed.
If there is a decision reversal tomorrow that's effective tomorrow, there'll be a database decision on whether to record the less-than-week-long clock change.-S

Prime Minister Mikati calls for a cabinet session tomorrow (Monday) noon and the issue of timing is the single item on the agenda
Noon standard time, or noon daylight saving time? :-)
Anyway, thank you for the heads-up. In the light of today's and (likely) tomorrow's developments I suggest that downstream distributors stick with tzdb 2023a for now. The only change in 2023b is this recent controversial Lebanon adjustment, and if (as seems quite possible) the Lebanese government changes its rules again, we'll need a tzdb 2023c shortly, which will quite possibly be identical to 2023a except for commentary.
In short: stick with 2023a for now, and tomorrow let's see.
What a mess, huh?
