The rules for Mexico Daylight Savings Time should have the 2001 rules commented out, and the previous two lines reset to run to max.... The time zone rules for America/Tijuana should have the last line commented out, and the previous line reset to not expire.
Hmmm, why should the 2001 rules be commented out? We do need new rules for 2002, but that doesn't mean that the 2001 rules were incorrect for 2001.
The time zone rules for America/Mexico_City should have the last line commented out, and the previous line reset to not expire.
Thanks for that fix. Here is a patch, relative to all the other patches I've sent in recently. I'll send out a combined patch soon, for sanity's sake. =================================================================== RCS file: RCS/northamerica,v retrieving revision 2001.4.0.1 retrieving revision 2001.4.0.2 diff -pu -r2001.4.0.1 -r2001.4.0.2 --- northamerica 2002/03/25 06:42:59 2001.4.0.1 +++ northamerica 2002/04/02 19:43:30 2001.4.0.2 @@ -1365,7 +1365,7 @@ Zone America/Dawson -9:17:40 - LMT 1900 # From Jesper Norgaard Welen (2002-03-12): # ... consulting my local grocery store(!) and my coworkers, they all insisted # that a new decision had been made to reinstate US style DST in Mexico.... -# http://www.conae.gob.mx/ahorro/horaver2001_m1_2002.html +# http://www.conae.gob.mx/ahorro/horaver2001_m1_2002.html (2002-02-20) # confirms this.
