+Release 2018i - 2018-12-30 11:05:43 -0800
+
+ Briefly:
+ São Tomé and Príncipe switches from +01 to +00 on 2019-01-01.
+
+ Changes to future timestamps
+
+ Due to a change in government, São Tomé and Príncipe switches back
+ from +01 to +00 on 2019-01-01 at 02:00. (Thanks to Vadim
+ Nasardinov and Michael Deckers.)
+
+
+Release 2018h - 2018-12-23 17:59:32 -0800
+
+ Briefly:
+ Qyzylorda, Kazakhstan moved from +06 to +05 on 2018-12-21.
+ New zone Asia/Qostanay because Qostanay, Kazakhstan didn't move.
+ Metlakatla, Alaska observes PST this winter only.
+ Guess Morocco will continue to adjust clocks around Ramadan.
+ Add predictions for Iran from 2038 through 2090.
+
+ Changes to future timestamps
+
+ Guess that Morocco will continue to fall back just before and
+ spring forward just after Ramadan, the practice since 2012.
+ (Thanks to Maamar Abdelkader.) This means Morocco will observe
+ negative DST during Ramadan in main and vanguard formats, and in
+ rearguard format it stays in the +00 timezone and observes
+ ordinary DST in all months other than Ramadan. As before, extend
+ this guesswork to the year 2037. As a consequence, Morocco is
+ scheduled to observe three DST transitions in some Gregorian years
+ (e.g., 2033) due to the mismatch between the Gregorian and Islamic
+ calendars.
+
+ The table of exact transitions for Iranian DST has been extended.
+ It formerly cut off before the year 2038 in a nod to 32-bit time_t.
+ It now cuts off before 2091 as there is doubt about how the Persian
+ calendar will treat 2091. This change predicts DST transitions in
+ 2038-9, 2042-3, and 2046-7 to occur one day later than previously
+ predicted. As before, post-cutoff transitions are approximated.
+
+ Changes to past and future timestamps
+
+ Qyzylorda (aka Kyzylorda) oblast in Kazakhstan moved from +06 to
+ +05 on 2018-12-21. This is a zone split as Qostanay (aka
+ Kostanay) did not switch, so create a zone Asia/Qostanay.
+
+ Metlakatla moved from Alaska to Pacific standard time on 2018-11-04.
+ It did not change clocks that day and remains on -08 this winter.
+ (Thanks to Ryan Stanley.) It will revert to the usual Alaska
+ rules next spring, so this change affects only timestamps
+ from 2018-11-04 through 2019-03-10.
+
+ Change to past timestamps
+
+ Kwajalein's 1993-08-20 transition from -12 to +12 was at 24:00,
+ not 00:00. I transcribed the time incorrectly from Shanks.
+ (Thanks to Phake Nick.)
+
+ Nauru's 1979 transition was on 02-10 at 02:00, not 05-01 at 00:00.
+ (Thanks to Phake Nick.)
+
+ Guam observed DST irregularly from 1959 through 1977.
+ (Thanks to Phake Nick.)
+
+ Hong Kong observed DST in 1941 starting 06-15 (not 04-01), then on
+ 10-01 changed standard time to +08:30 (not +08). Its transition
+ back to +08 after WWII was on 1945-09-15, not the previous day.
+ Its 1904-10-30 change took effect at 01:00 +08 (not 00:00 LMT).
+ (Thanks to Phake Nick, Steve Allen, and Joseph Myers.) Also,
+ its 1952 fallback was on 11-02 (not 10-25).
+
+ This release contains many changes to timestamps before 1946 due
+ to Japanese possession or occupation of Pacific/Chuuk,
+ Pacific/Guam, Pacific/Kosrae, Pacific/Kwajalein, Pacific/Majuro,
+ Pacific/Nauru, Pacific/Palau, and Pacific/Pohnpei.
+ (Thanks to Phake Nick.)
+
+ Assume that the Spanish East Indies was like the Philippines and
+ observed American time until the end of 1844. This affects
+ Pacific/Chuuk, Pacific/Kosrae, Pacific/Palau, and Pacific/Pohnpei.
+
+ Changes to past tm_isdst flags
+
+ For the recent Morocco change, the tm_isdst flag should be 1 from
+ 2018-10-27 00:00 to 2018-10-28 03:00. (Thanks to Michael Deckers.)
+ Give a URL to the official decree. (Thanks to Matt Johnson.)

+# administration area (Southern Islands Eastern Standard Time).
+# * In the next few years Japanese occupation of those islands have been
+# formalized via League of Nation Mandate (South Pacific Mandate) and formal
+# governance structure have been established, these district [become
+# subprefectures] and timezone classification have been inherited as standard
+# time of the area.
+# * Saipan subprefecture include Mariana islands (exclude Guam which was
+# occupied by America at the time), Palau and Yap subprefecture rule the
+# Western Caroline Islands with 137E longitude as border, Truk and Ponape
+# subprefecture rule the Eastern Caroline Islands with 154E as border, Ponape
+# subprefecture also rule part of Marshall Islands to the west of 164E
+# starting from (1918?) and Jaluit subprefecture rule the rest of the
+# Marshall Islands.
+#
+# And then in year 1937, an announcement was made to change the time in the
+# area into 2 timezones:
+# * Area that use meridian of 135E: area administered by Palau, Yap and
+# Saipan subprefecture (Southern Islands Western Standard Time)
+# * Area that use meridian of 150E: area administered by Truk (Chuuk),
+# Ponape (Pohnpei) and Jaluit subprefecture (Southern Islands Eastern
+# Standard Time)
+#
+# Another announcement issued in 1941 say that on April 1 that year,
+# standard time of the Southern Islands would be changed to use the meridian
+# of 135E (GMT+9), and thus abolishing timezone different within the area.
+#
+# Then Pacific theater of WWII started and Japan slowly lose control on the
+# island. The webpage I linked above contain no information during this
+# period of time....
+#
+# After the end of WWII, in 1946 February, a document written by the
+# (former?) Japanese military personnel describe there are 3 hours time
+# different between Caroline islands time/Wake island time and the Chungking
+# time, which would mean the time being used there at the time was GMT+10.
+#
+# After that, the area become Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands
+# under American administration from year 1947. The site listed some

+# A brief but entertaining history of time in Indiana describes a 1949 debate
+# in the Indiana House where city legislators (who favored "fast time")
+# tussled with farm legislators (who didn't) over a bill to outlaw DST:
+# "Lacking enough votes, the city faction tries to filibuster until time runs
+# out on the session at midnight, but rural champion Rep. Herbert Copeland,
+# R-Madison, leans over the gallery railing and forces the official clock
+# back to 9 p.m., breaking it in the process. The clock sticks on 9 as the
+# debate rages on into the night. The filibuster finally dies out and the
+# bill passes, while outside the chamber, clocks read 3:30 a.m. In the end,
+# it doesn't matter which side won. The law has no enforcement powers and
+# is simply ignored by fast-time communities."
