<DIV></DIV>Hi,<BR><BR>I hope i'm not wasting your time. I'm attempting to
read the tz database into a c# application, and I'm not sure how to interpret
this entry:<BR><BR>Zone Australia/Hobart
9:49:16 - LMT 1895
Sep<BR>
10:00 - EST 1916 Oct 1
2:00<BR>
10:00 1:00 EST 1917
Feb<BR>
10:00 Aus EST
1967<BR>
10:00 AT EST<BR><BR>What is the significance
of the "1:00" on the row ending in "1917 Feb". Do I just add this to the
10:00 offset?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Russell<BR><BR><BR></BODY></HTML>
