Now it will start on Oct 03 1999 and will end on Feb 27 2000. I am attaching a southamerica file that includes this changes, but I am not experienced in this kind of updates, please rewrite it.

Is this change just for this year, or is it permanent? I.e. will the autumn change always be on the last Sunday in February? I'm CC'ing this message to dsh@on.br, which is the official contact point for the Departamento Servico da Hora of the Observatorio Nacional. Their web site http://pcdsh01.on.br/ doesn't list the new decree, but I assume that it will soon. I am attaching a southamerica file that includes this changes, Hmm, the file that you sent didn't have any changes. I'll hold off on proposing changes until knowing whether the change is permanent.
Paul, We cannot anticipate what going to help next year. Unfortunatelly, rules in Brazil are not made to last. I can bet they will change it next fall again. About the file, I have sent the wrong one. Attached is the right one. Ricardo. Paul Eggert wrote:
