Description of changes:
[2016g-2]
- Rebase to tzdata-2016g.
- Turkey changed from EET/EEST (+02/+03) to permanent +03,
on 2016-09-07.
- A new leap second will be added on 2016-12-31 23:59:60 UTC.
[2016g-1.20160927.prerelease]
- Change the Release to 1.20160927_prerelease.dist.
[2016g-1.prerelease]
- Rebase to prerelease version of tzdata-2016g.
- Turkey changed from EET/EEST (+02/+03) to permanent +03,
on 2016-09-07.
- A new leap second will be added on 2016-12-31 23:59:60 UTC.
[2016f-2]
- Interim builds to add support for leap second.
[2016f-1]
- Rebase to 2016f
- Egypt cancelled DST.
- Asia/Novosibirsk transitions from +06 to +07 on 2016-07-24 at 02:00.
[2016e-1]
- Rebase to 2016e
- Egypt reinstates DST.
[2016d-1]
- Rebase to 2016d
- America/Caracas switches from -0430 to -04 on 2016-05-01 at 02:30.
- Asia/Magadan switches from +10 to +11 on 2016-04-24 at 02:00.
- New zone Asia/Tomsk, split off from Asia/Novosibirsk. It covers
Tomsk Oblast, Russia, which switches from +06 to +07 on 2016-05-29
at 02:00.
[2016c-1]
- Rebase to 2016c
- Azerbaijan no longer observes DST.
- Chile reverts from permanent to seasonal DST.
[2016b-1]
- Rebase to 2016b
- New zones Europe/Astrakhan and Europe/Ulyanovsk for Astrakhan and
Ulyanovsk Oblasts, Russia, both of which will switch from +03 to +04 on
2016-03-27 at 02:00 local time. They need distinct zones since their
post-1970 histories disagree. New zone Asia/Barnaul for Altai Krai and
Altai Republic, Russia, which will switch from +06 to +07 on the
same date
and local time. The Astrakhan change is already official; the
others have
passed the first reading in the State Duma and are extremely likely.
Also, Asia/Sakhalin moves from +10 to +11 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00.
- As a trial of a new system that needs less information to be made up,
the new zones use numeric time zone abbreviations like "+04"
instead of invented abbreviations like "ASTT".
- Haiti will not observe DST in 2016.
- Palestine's spring-forward transition on 2016-03-26 is at 01:00,
not 00:00.
Guess future transitions will be March's last
Saturday at 01:00, not March's last Friday at 24:00.
