Changes in Chile??

[richard_gombert at goodyear.com]

Ah, I did not join the mailing list until after May  8, 2010 (because of 
the change). At that time Redhat had just released tzdata-2011g (three 
days before the change). I have not seen tzdata-2011h (looking for it)

Thanks,

discussion of this.

According to the patch applied earlier this year it was (originally) 
scheduled for October 9, 2011. 

This was discussed (by me!) sometime around late March when the change was 
made; I submitted a patch which was accepted at that time which changed 
the DST off time to May and the DST on time to August.  From the current 
file (tzdata2011h):

Rule Chile 2011 only - Aug Sun>=16 4:00u 1:00 S

We still have no word on what's going to happen next year.
