Hi there! I'm agree with this comment in asia rules file: # From Phil Pizzey (2009-04-02): # ...I think I may have spotted an error in the timezone data for # Jordan. # The current (2009d) asia file shows Jordan going to daylight # saving # time on the last Thursday in March. # # Rule Jordan 2000 max - Mar lastThu 0:00s 1:00 S # # However timeanddate.com, which I usually find reliable, shows Jordan # going to daylight saving time on the last Friday in March since 2002. # Please see # <a href="http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/timezone.html?n=11"> # http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/timezone.html?n=11 # </a> It's real that Jordan makes transition to DST on last Friday of march. For this reason I've changed 2 rules Rule Jordan 2000 2001 - Mar lastThu 0:00s 1:00 S Rule Jordan 2014 max - Mar lastThu 24:00 1:00 S To Rule Jordan 2000 2001 - Mar lastFri 0:00s 1:00 S Rule Jordan 2014 max - Mar lastFri 24:00 1:00 S I'va attached my copy of changed file.

As far as I can see the tz database is OK as-is. Usually, the last Thursday at 24:00 is the same as the last Friday at 00:00. When they disagree, as in 2011, the Thursday rule appears to be the correct one.
