Microsoft exec says Namibia and Iran have recently changed DST rules

[Paul Eggert]

In an interview Microsoft published yesterday
<http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2007/mar07/03-01DaylightSaving.mspx>
Rich Kaplan, Vice President of Microsoft Customer Service, Partners
and Automation said "Namibia and Iran ratified changes even more
recently" than December 2006.  Has anyone else heard about this, or
was Mr. Kaplan merely misinformed?

Kaplan is also quoted as saying that Brazil and Israel are not on the
Gregorian calendar, so I'm inclined to think the information got
garbled a bit in translation....
