Since the anticipated change is now less than two weeks away, I've
drafted some patches, attached.<br>
<br>
(0001 is just a minor fixup to a previous NEWS item for grammatical
consistency.)<br>
<br>
0002 simply shifts America/Cancun, the existing zone representing
Quintana Roo state, ahead by one hour from CST with daylight saving
to EST without, effective 2015-02-01 02:00.<br>
<br>
As for 0003, which carves out a new zone for Felipe Carrillo
Puerto's divergent history, it's not clear the extent to which this
is actually necessary. What did FCP actually do between 1998 and
the present? Would someone calling local offices be effective in
helping us find out? (In the meantime, I've simply created this
patch so we can at least get a sense of what it might look like; I
don't actually feel that it should be applied at this time until
these questions are resolved.)<br>

The Mexican state of Quintana Roo

going back from DST in October 2015.
Its a bit unclear if they will still

According to this source, Quintana Roo
will change to EST as soon as 1 February
2015 at 2am:<br>

Through Google Translate, it says
"According to the authorities, the term
of the new time zone start at two
o'clock on the first Sunday of February,
when we brought forward one hour
actual[?] hours, so the clock will be
three o'clock."<br>
<br>
Also, the new zone will not use DST.
