Timezone in Iraqi Kurdistan

An article in this week's Economist ("Inside the Saddam-free zone", p. 50 in the U.S. edition) on the Iraqi Kurds contains a paragraph: "With help from the UN, and protected by an air shield provided by America and Britain, the three northern provinces, although officially part of Iraq, have become the de facto state of Kurdistan, enjoying far more autonomy than the Kurds in Turkey, Iran or Syria. They use a different currency and patrol their own borders. They even switched their clocks this spring and are an hour ahead of Baghdad." Anyone know anything more about this? tzdata2000d only has a single entry for Iraq, Asia/Baghdad. -- Jonathan Lennox lennox@cs.columbia.edu --KAA03013.960821760/cs.columbia.edu--
