Just came back from dinner and was about to post this same article :-)

Here's another one:
http://www.clarin.com/diario/2007/12/26/um/m-01571929.htm

At 3AM Argentina Time (6AM UTC), the Buenos Aires Herald's page is
supposed to be updated and you'll be able to find something in English
regarding this at http://www.buenosairesherald.com/



The only missing step is the "promulgation" (or however this is said in
English) of the Law, but since that is within the power of the
Executive, it should happen between Thursday and Friday so I think it is
quite safe to update tzdata.

Regards.
