+# along with Ed Reingold's cal-hebrew in GNU Emacs 21.4,

-# From Ephraim Silverberg (2003-03-23):
-#
-# Minister of Interior Poraz has announced that he will respect the law
-# passed in July 2000 (proposed at the time jointly by himself and
-# then-MK David Azulai [Shas]) fixing the dates for 2000-2004.  Hence,
-# the dates for 2003 and 2004 remain unchanged....
-#
-# As far as 2005 and beyond, no dates have been set.  However, the
-# minister has mentioned that he wishes to propose to move Israel's
-# timezone in 2005 from GMT+2 to GMT+3 and upon that have DST during
-# the summer months (i.e. GMT+4).  However, no legislation in this
-# direction is expected until the latter part of 2004 which is a long
-# time off in terms of Israeli politics.
-
-# (2004-09-20):
-# The latest rumour, however, is that in 2005, when the clock changes to
-# Daylight Saving Time (date as yet unknown), the move will be a two-hour leap
-# forward (from UTC+0200 to UTC+0400) and then, in the fall, the clock will
-# move back only an hour to UTC+0300 thus effectively moving Israel's timezone
-# from UTC+0200 to UTC+0300.  However, no actual draft has been put before the
-# Knesset (Israel's Parliament) though the intention is to do so this
-# month [2004-09].
-
-# (2004-09-26):
-# Even though the draft law for the above did pass the Ministerial Committee
-# for Legislative Matters three months ago, it was voted down in today's
-# Cabinet meeting.  The current suggestion is to keep the current timezone at
-# UTC+0200 but have an extended period of Daylight Saving Time (UTC+0300) from
-# the beginning of Passover holiday in the spring to after the Tabernacle
-# holiday in the fall (i.e. the dates of which are governed by the Hebrew
-# calendar but this means at least 184 days of DST).  However, this is only a
-# suggestion that was raised in today's cabinet meeting and has not yet been
-# drafted.

+# daylight-saving time just three days after the bill was passed generated
+# deep hatred of the concept....  The Diet unceremoniously passed a bill to

 #

+# From Branislav Kojic (in Astana) via Gwillim Law (2005-06-28):
+# ... what happened was that the former Kazakhstan Eastern time zone
+# was "blended" with the Central zone.  Therefore, Kazakhstan now has
+# two time zones, and difference between them is one hour.  The zone
+# closer to UTC is the former Western zone (probably still called the
+# same), encompassing four provinces in the west: Aqtobe, Atyrau,
+# Mangghystau, and West Kazakhstan.  The other zone encompasses
+# everything else....  I guess that would make Kazakhstan time zones
+# de jure UTC+5 and UTC+6 respectively.

+# From Wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone> (2005-08-31):
+# Before 1920, all ships kept local apparent time on the high seas by setting
+# their clocks at night or at the morning sight so that, given the ship's
+# speed and direction, it would be 12 o'clock when the Sun crossed the ship's
+# meridian (12 o'clock = local apparent noon).  During 1917, at the
+# Anglo-French Conference on Time-keeping at Sea, it was recommended that all
+# ships, both military and civilian, should adopt hourly standard time zones
+# on the high seas.  Whenever a ship was within the territorial waters of any
+# nation it would use that nation's standard time.  The captain was permitted
+# to change his ship's clocks at a time of his choice following his ship's
+# entry into another zone time--he often chose midnight.  These zones were
+# adopted by all major fleets between 1920 and 1925 but not by many
+# independent merchant ships until World War II.

+# The American Practical Navigator (2002)
+# <http://pollux.nss.nima.mil/pubs/pubs_j_apn_sections.html?rid=187>

+# http://www.hum.aau.dk/~poe/tid/tine/DanskTid.htm says that the law
+# [introducing standard time] was in effect from 1894-01-01....
+# The page http://www.retsinfo.dk/_GETDOCI_/ACCN/A18930008330-REGL
+# confirms this, and states that the law was put forth 1893-03-29.
+#
+# The EU treaty with effect from 1973:
+# http://www.retsinfo.dk/_GETDOCI_/ACCN/A19722110030-REGL
+#
+# This provoked a new law from 1974 to make possible summer time changes
+# in subsequenet decrees with the law
+# http://www.retsinfo.dk/_GETDOCI_/ACCN/A19740022330-REGL
+#
+# It seems however that no decree was set forward until 1980.  I have
+# not found any decree, but in another related law, the effecting DST
+# changes are stated explicitly to be from 1980-04-06 at 02:00 to
+# 1980-09-28 at 02:00.  If this is true, this differs slightly from
+# the EU rule in that DST runs to 02:00, not 03:00.  We don't know
+# when Denmark began using the EU rule correctly, but we have only
+# confirmation of the 1980-time, so I presume it was correct in 1981:
+# The law is about the management of the extra hour, concerning
+# working hours reported and effect on obligatory-rest rules (which
+# was suspended on that night):
+# http://www.retsinfo.dk/_GETDOCI_/ACCN/C19801120554-REGL

+# Saturday and Sunday the clock is set back from three to two.
+
+# From Paul Eggert (2005-06-11):
+# Hence the "02:00" of the 1980 law refers to standard time, not
+# wall-clock time, and so the EU rules were in effect in 1980.

+# with the following exceptions:
+#
+# - Gibson, Jasper, Lake, LaPorte, Newton, Porter, Posey, Spencer,
+#   Vandenburgh, and Warrick counties have been like America/Chicago.
+#
+# - Dearborn and Ohio counties have been like America/New_York.
+#
+# - Clark, Floyd, and Harrison counties have been like

+#
+# - Crawford, Starke, and Switzerland counties have their own time zone
+#   histories as noted below.

 #
 #

-# From Paul Eggert (1995-12-19):
-# Indiana generally observes either EST all year, or CST/CDT,
-# but areas near Cincinnati and Louisville use those cities' timekeeping
-# and in 1969 and 1970 the whole state observed daylight time;
-# and there are other exceptions as noted below.

 # Shanks partitions Indiana into 345 regions, each with its own time history,
 # and writes ``Even newspaper reports present contradictory information.''
 # Fortunately, most of the complexity occurred before our cutoff date of 1970.

-# Most of EST-only Indiana last observed DST in 1970.

 
 

-# From Paul Eggert (2001-03-06), following a tip by Markus Kuhn:
-# Pam Belluck reported in the New York Times (2001-01-31) that the
-# Indiana Legislature is considering a bill to adopt DST statewide.
-# Her article mentioned Vevay, whose post office observes a different
-# time zone from Danner's Hardware across the street.
+# From Paul Eggert (2005-08-16):
+# http://www.mccsc.edu/time.html says that Indiana will use DST starting 2006,
+# and that many counties may switch either to Central or to Eastern time.
+# The county-by-county decisions have not been made yet, so for now assume
+# that no counties will switch: this assumption is most likely wrong,

+# (2005-12-07).
+#
+# To reflect all this, the Canada and Winn rules have been adjusted to
+# agree with the 2007 US change.  This means we assume most of Canada
+# will fall into line.  However, Alberta, British Columbia,
+# Newfoundland, Northwest Territories, and Yukon already have separate

+# means that we currently assume these regions will not change their

+# assumption is probably incorrect, with the possible exception of
+# Newfoundland.  We plan to adjust the Edm, Vanc, StJohns, and NT_YK
+# rules as the corresponding provinces make their announcements.

+# I've got reports from 8 different people that Nicaragua just started
+# DST on Sunday 2005-04-10, in order to save energy because of
+# expensive petroleum.  The exact end date for DST is not yet
+# announced, only "September" but some sites also say "mid-September".
+# Some background information is available on the President's official site:
+# http://www.presidencia.gob.ni/Presidencia/Files_index/Secretaria/Notas%20de%20Prensa/Presidente/2005/ABRIL/Gobierno-de-nicaragua-adelanta-hora-oficial-06abril.htm
+# The Decree, no 23-2005 is available here:
+# http://www.presidencia.gob.ni/buscador_gaceta/BD/DECRETOS/2005/Decreto%2023-2005%20Se%20adelanta%20en%20una%20hora%20en%20todo%20el%20territorio%20nacional%20apartir%20de%20las%2024horas%20del%2009%20de%20Abril.pdf
+#
+# From Paul Eggert (2005-05-01):
+# The decree doesn't say anything about daylight saving, but for now let's
+# assume that it is daylight saving and that they'll switch back on the
+# 3rd Sunday in September.
+#
+# From Gwillim Law (2005-04-21):
+# The Associated Press story on the time change, which can be found at
+# http://www.lapalmainteractivo.com/guias/content/gen/ap/America_Latina/AMC_GEN_NICARAGUA_HORA.html
+# and elsewhere, says (fifth paragraph, translated from Spanish):  "The last
+# time that a change of clocks was applied to save energy was in the year 2000
+# during the Arnoldo Aleman administration."...
+# The northamerica file says that Nicaragua has been on UTC-6 continuously
+# since December 1998.  I wasn't able to find any details of Nicaraguan time
+# changes in 2000.  Perhaps a note could be added to the northamerica file, to
+# the effect that we have indirect evidence that DST was observed in 2000.
+#
+# From Jesper Norgaard Welen (2005-11-02):
+# Nicaragua left DST the 2005-10-02 at 00:00 (local time).
