421# This data is by no means authoritative; if you think you know better,

424
425# From Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> (August 18, 1994):
426# A good source for time zone historical data outside the U.S. is
427# Thomas G. Shanks, The International Atlas (3rd edition),
428# San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (1991).
429# Except where noted, it is the source for the data above.
430#
431# Another source occasionally used is Edward W. Whitman, World Time Differences,
432# Whitman Publishing Co, 2 Niagara Av, Ealing, London (undated), which
433# I found in the UCLA library.
434#
435# A reliable and entertaining source about time zones is
436# Derek Howse, Greenwich time and the discovery of the longitude,
437# Oxford University Press (1980).
438#
439# I invented the abbreviations marked `*' in the following table;

446# From Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> (August 18, 1994):
447# A good source for time zone historical data outside the U.S. is
448# Thomas G. Shanks, The International Atlas (3rd edition),
449# San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (1991).
450# Except where noted, it is the source for the data above.
451#
452# Another source occasionally used is Edward W. Whitman, World Time Differences,
453# Whitman Publishing Co, 2 Niagara Av, Ealing, London (undated), which
454# I found in the UCLA library.
455#
456# A reliable and entertaining source about time zones is
457# Derek Howse, Greenwich time and the discovery of the longitude,
458# Oxford University Press (1980).

470# Australia
471
472# From John Mackin (March 6, 1991):
473# We in Australia have _never_ referred to DST as `daylight' time.
474# It is called `summer' time. Now by a happy coincidence, `summer'
475# and `standard' happen to start with the same letter; hence, the
476# abbreviation does _not_ change...
477# The legislation does not actually define abbreviations, at least
478# in this State, but the abbreviation is just commonly taken to be the
479# initials of the phrase, and the legislation here uniformly uses
480# the phrase `summer time' and does not use the phrase `daylight
481# time'.
482# Announcers on the Commonwealth radio network, the ABC (for Australian
483# Broadcasting Commission), use the phrases `Eastern Standard Time'
484# or `Eastern Summer Time'. (Note, though, that as I say in the
485# current australasia file, there is really no such thing.) Announcers
486# on its overseas service, Radio Australia, use the same phrases
487# prefixed by the word `Australian' when referring to local times;
488# time announcements on that service, naturally enough, are made in UTC.
489
490# From Arthur David Olson (March 8 1992):
491# Given the above, what's chosen for year-round use is:
492# CST for any place operating at a GMTOFF of 9:30
493# WST for any place operating at a GMTOFF of 8:00
494# EST for any place operating at a GMTOFF of 10:00

521# Shanks reports 2:00 for all autumn changes in Australia and New Zealand.
522# Mark Prior <mrp@itd.adelaide.edu.au> writes that his newspaper
523# reports that NSW's fall 1995 change will occur at 2:00,
524# but Robert Elz says it's been 3:00 in Victoria since 1970
525# and perhaps the newspaper's `2:00' is referring to standard time.
526# And Robert Uzgalis <buz@cs.aukuni.ac.nz> says that the New Zealand Daylight
527# Savings Time Order in Council dated 1990-06-18 specifies 2:00 standard
528# time on both the first Sunday in October and the third Sunday in March.
529# For now we'll continue to assume 3:00 for changes since 1970.
