Hi there,

      I think I may have spotted an error in the timezone data for Jordan.
      The current (2009d) asia file shows Jordan going to daylight saving
time on the last Thursday in March.

Rule  Jordan      2000  max	-  Mar   lastThu     0:00s 1:00  S

      However timeanddate.com, which I usually find reliable, shows Jordan
going to daylight saving time on the last Friday in March since 2002.
      Please see http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/timezone.html?n=11

Thursday, 28 March 2002, 23:59:59 No +2 hours EET
