    On 2010-07-20 20:03, Arthur David Olson proposed the rule:

> + Rule   Egypt  2010   only  -   Sep   9   0:00s   1:00 S

    I had the impression that the quoted sources indicate
    the switch one day later, on a Friday:

 > + Rule   Egypt  2010   only  -   Sep  10   0:00s   1:00 S

    At least Bairam only begins at 2010-09-09.75 in Egypt.

    Regards
