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

Thursday, 28 March 2002, 23:59:59 No +2 hours EET
Friday, 29 March 2002, 01:00:00 1 hour +3 hours EEST DST starts
