Hi,

Sorry to distract from the alternative names, but I have a report from a
Sao Paulo colleague that they've changed the date for the transition
again this year.  According to him,

     As you may know we have the daylight savings for Sao Paulo/Brazil
coming
     soon and as it happens every year the government has changed the
dates
     again... It'll start on oct/8th and will end on February 18 both at
     0:00.






This doesn't seem to match up with this excerpt from 2000f/southamerica

# Decree <a href="http://pcdsh01.on.br/DecHV99.gif">3,188</a>
(1999-09-30)
# adds SE, AL, PE, PR, RN, CE, PI, MA and RR.
# These give only one year's rules.  After that, the rules are guesses
# and are quite possibly wrong, but are more likely than no DST at all.
Rule    Brazil  1999    max     -       Oct     Sun>=1   0:00   1:00
S
Rule    Brazil  2000    max     -       Feb     lastSun  0:00   0
-

I can't believe I'm the first to report this.  Did I miss an update?  Is
my colleague misinformed?

Thanks,

dmadeo
