Microsoft exec says Namibia and Iran have recently changed DST rules

In an interview Microsoft published yesterday <http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2007/mar07/03-01DaylightSaving.m...> Rich Kaplan, Vice President of Microsoft Customer Service, Partners and Automation said "Namibia and Iran ratified changes even more recently" than December 2006. Has anyone else heard about this, or was Mr. Kaplan merely misinformed? Kaplan is also quoted as saying that Brazil and Israel are not on the Gregorian calendar, so I'm inclined to think the information got garbled a bit in translation....
