The Associated Press reports that yesterday Chile announced it will
extend DST this year due to a drought, until the last Saturday in
March.  Does anybody have details?  Here's the URL I used for the AP
report (though it may not work for you: AP Google URLs are unreliable
in my experience):

Without further info, I guess I would assume that DST will end in
Chile and in Easter Island on March 30 at 03:00 UTC.
