DST Australia & surroundings

Indeed, a short but good overview of the daylight saving times in several parts of South Australia from 1999-2001: http://www.sacentral.sa.gov.au/information/daylite.htm "South Australia Central - Information & Community" Much more information about the when, where and why can be found on the page "Australia's Daylight Saving Times", http://www.dstc.qut.edu.au/DST/marg/daylight.html Please note that this page also gives detailed information about: Lord Howe Island, Admiralty Islands, Mutton Bird Islands, Ball`s Pyramid, Norfolk Island, Nepean and Phillip Island,Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Christmas Island, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Heard Island, McDonald Islands, Macquarie Island, Australian Antarctic Territory - Davis, Mawson, Casey. Interesting to note that this page confirms that the Macquarie Island station follows Tasmania, including DST. I would like to suggest that the tz file "australasia" should be updated with this information, if the information is regarded to be true. Oscar van Vlijmen 2000-01-22

To correct with the least possible change that would have to be "... parts of southern Australia...", South Australia being merely a state more or less in southern Australia.

The South Australian government seems magnamously and sensibly to have provided information about DST for all of Australia (excluding outlying Islands) presumably to avoid any doubt about its decision _not_ to join the south-eastern States in an earlier-than-usual start to DST this year.
