Hi all, I have a question about how to interpret the US set of rules. After going through the "zic" man page and the mailing list archive I am still unclear about the meaning of using this: [...] Rule US 1942 only - Feb 9 2:00 1:00 W # War Rule US 1945 only - Aug 14 23:00u 1:00 P # Peace Rule US 1945 only - Sep 30 2:00 0 S [...] in a zone definition like this: Zone America/New_York -4:56:02 - LMT 1883 Nov 18 12:03:58 -5:00 US E%sT 1920 -5:00 NYC E%sT 1942 -5:00 US E%sT 1946 [...] As I see it, the US rule has a transition in 1942 (only), on Feb 9th, where it saved 1 hour. Am I correct in interpreting the gap of 43-44 as: 1. The transition of 1942 was observed up until 1945, Sep 30th, and... 2. The entry for Aug 14th, 1945 transition exists only in order to be used in time zones which did not observe the 1942 transition? Thanks, Liviu
