Hi,
Margarita is not on the tz mailing list and she asked me to forward this to you.... if you want replies to reach her, don't forget to add her address to the Cc:
As this paper news (http://www.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=1187055 <http://www.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=1187055>) that Arnaldo just sent to the list, confirms, there will be no DST change in Argentina this weekend (although the Decree wasn't published in time).
I checked Margarita's patch and it seems OK to me (for what I read last year, she works with the Debian people helping them maintain the tzdata package at least in stuff related to Argentina).
Regards.
Buenos Aires Herald- Breaking News Gov't confirms suspension of daylight saving scheme http://www.buenosairesherald.com/BreakingNews/View/14700 The decision was announced by Planning Minister Julio de Vido during a radio interview. "We have suspended the measure for the moment," De Vido told reporters. The minister said he was confident that the higher demand for electricity would be satisfied thanks to recent investments to increase production at power plants.
