Until Feb 1917, add 10h offset to get standard time, and 1 more hour for local wall time (EST). This shortcut represents &quot;daylight/summer&#39; time, without having to use a rule record.<br><font color="#888888">

Hi,<br>
<br>
I hope i&#39;m not wasting your time.  I&#39;m attempting to read the tz database into a c# application, and I&#39;m not sure how to interpret this entry:<br>
<br>
Zone Australia/Hobart    9:49:16    -    LMT    1895 Sep<br>
            10:00    -    EST    1916 Oct 1 2:00<br>
            10:00    1:00    EST    1917 Feb<br>
            10:00    Aus    EST    1967<br>
            10:00    AT    EST<br>
<br>
What is the significance of the &quot;1:00&quot; on the row ending in &quot;1917 Feb&quot;.  Do I just add this to the 10:00 offset?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Russell<br>
