That web page is about changes in September 2022, not September 2023. As far as we know, it was a one-shot change and things went back to normal this spring.
Last August an official from the Chile Interior Department sent the list an official update and clarification in the thread starting: https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2022-August/031858.html [tz] Official Chilean Goverment Decret for timezone changes 2022-2026 from Eduardo Romero Urra - eromero AT interior DOT gob DOT cl with a link to the decree document: https://www.diariooficial.interior.gob.cl/publicaciones/2022/08/13/43327/01/... and comments: "I've review your update 2022b TZdata and it's ok for this year where the summer time starts the second saturday of September (Sep 10th at midnight), but the next years (2023 to 2026) is need to precise that the summer time event affects only for this year according to avoid problem confusions to a Votation Day schedule to the next sunday Sept 4th (the original summer time change was schedule at Saturday Sep 3th midnight). Also consider this also affects to Easter Island Time Zone (Pacific/Easter) and not affects to Chile/Punta_Arenas Time Zone." and he excerpted from the decree: "2023-2025 - Chile/Continental (America/Santiago): Summer time ends at first saturday of Abril 24:00 Hrs, backward 1hour (GMT -04), and Summer time starts the first saturday of September at 24:00, adding 1hour (GMT -03) - Chile/Easter (Pacific/Easter): Summer time ends at first saturday of Abril at 22:00 Hrs, backward 1hour ( GMT -06), and Summer time starts the first saturday of September at 24:00, adding 1hour (GMT -05) - Chile/Punta_Arenas (America/Punta_Arenas): No changes, keeps on GMT -03" Any unusual looking days or times in rules or zones are workarounds for limitations in expressions for recurring dates and time in the software. -- Take care.
