Thanks for the heads-up. We'll need a new TZDB release some time fairly soon, since our current prediction for Egypt will be wrong starting April 28. Google Translate suggests that the announcement doesn't specify transition times. The attached proposed patch assumes the transition time is 00:00 in spring (i.e., the start of April's last Friday) and 24:00 in fall (i.e., the end of October's last Thursday.) Does that sound right to you?
