Upcoming Indiana time zone moves

[Arthur David Olson]

No news from DOT this morning.

Barring new developments, on Monday I'll incorporate the manual changes
and Paul's previously circulated data changes into the ftp version.

+ a clock advance caused by the start of daylight saving
+ coincides with and is equal to
+ a clock retreat caused by a change in UTC offset,
+ .IR zic

+ (without any change in wall clock time).
+ To get separate transitions
