324# Egypt will start DST on midnight after Thursday, April 30, 2015.
325# This is based on a law (no 35) from May 15, 2014 saying it starts the last
326# Thursday of April.... Clocks will still be turned back for Ramadan, but
327# dates not yet announced....

331# From Paul Eggert (2015-04-08):
332# For now, guess that later spring and fall transitions will use
333# 2014's rules, and guess that Egypt will switch to standard time at
334# 24:00 the last Thursday before Ramadan, and back to DST at 00:00 the
335# first Friday after Ramadan. To implement this,
336# transition dates for 2015 through 2037 were determined by running
337# the following program under GNU Emacs 24.4, with the results integrated
338# by hand into the table below. Ramadan again intrudes on the guessed
339# DST starting in 2038, but that's beyond our somewhat-arbitrary cutoff.

331# From Ahmed Nazmy (2015-04-20):
332# Egypt's ministers cabinet just announced ... that it will cancel DST at
333# least for 2015.

336# http://english.ahram.org.eg/WriterArticles/NewsContentP/1/128195/Egypt/No-daylight-saving-this-summer-Egypts-prime-minist.aspx
337# "Egypt's cabinet agreed on Monday not to switch clocks for daylight saving
338# time this summer, and carry out studies on the possibility of canceling the
339# practice altogether in future years."
340#
341# From Paul Eggert (2015-04-20):
342# For now, assume DST will be canceled. Any resumption would likely
343# use different rules anyway.
