I concur. Once IANA does the official release we have to wait for companies like Red Hat and Oracle and organization like PHP to release updates. I know a couple of years ago the Oracle update for one of the Chile DST changes was released by Oracle two days after the change went into affect. I all ready have an open change in for review with my companies change control board to allow the update patches (when released) to be installed. I just hope it gets approved when all my answers to the CAB's questions are "I don't know."

We should have a new release well before the Turkey change, yes. It doesn't seem that urgent, since it's a month from now. But if there's sentiment to push out a version now I can do that.
Given the software release process at many companies, “a month from now” is actually extremely urgent. Thanks, Debbie On Feb 27, 2014, at 11:37 AM, Paul Eggert <eggert@CS.UCLA.EDU> wrote:
