We are place in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. We use FreeBSD 4.10 and 5.4 and we need to update time zone file for our country. Our government cancels daylight saving time 6th of August 2005. Our GMT-offset is +5 and there was two daylight offsets as described in /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/asia: # Kyrgyzstan (Kirgizstan) # Transitions through 1991 are from Shanks. # Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/ Rule Kirgiz 1992 1996 - Apr Sun>=7 0:00s 1:00 S Rule Kirgiz 1992 1996 - Sep lastSun 0:00 0 - Rule Kirgiz 1997 max - Mar lastSun 2:30 1:00 S Rule Kirgiz 1997 max - Oct lastSun 2:30 0 - # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] Zone Asia/Bishkek 4:58:24 - LMT 1924 May 2 5:00 - FRUT 1930 Jun 21 # Frunze Time 6:00 RussiaAsia FRU%sT 1991 Mar 31 2:00s 5:00 1:00 FRUST 1991 Aug 31 2:00 # independence 5:00 Kirgiz KG%sT # Kirgizstan Time ############################################################################ ### Now our GMT-offset is +6 and it will not be changed in future. Unfortunately I didn't find any official documents published in Internet in English. Is it possible to update our timezone rules in /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/asia? Thank you.
