Attached are the diffs to 'asia' in tzdata2004e.tar.gz for the proposed dates for the State of Israel for the years 2005-2007. However, I don't know if they should be incorporated in the global database just yet as they have a long legislative path to pass before getting passed into law especially, as noted in the comments, since the Minister of Interior's own government objects to these dates. Nevertheless, I am sending this to the forum since these are better than no dates at all. Furthermore, even though there are no proposed dates for 2008 and beyond, I changed the default guesses to follow the proposed 2005-2007 rules. ___________________________________________________________________________ Ephraim Silverberg, CSE System Group, Phone number: 972-2-6585521 Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel.
