The DOT final ruling on Indiana came out today: http://www.dot.gov/affairs/dot0406.htm Based on my reading of this document, only one zone in tzdata is affected, America/Indiana/Knox. That zone will start observing US Central Time starting April 2, 2006, at the time of the switchover to Daylight Savings Time. Probably the easiest thing to do is to change the last two lines as follows: From: -5:00 - EST 2006 -5:00 US E%sT to: -5:00 - EST 2006 Apr 2 2:00 -5:00 US C%sT assuming I'm interpreting everything correctly. The DOT doesn't specify whether Starke county switch to Central Time at the appropriate time for its old or new time zone, but I'm assuming the old here. That leads to it falling back from 2:00AM EST to 1:00AM CST, and then again from 2:00AM CST to 1:00AM CST. If that makes people nervous, then the transition would need to be at 3:00 AM.
