As stated in the website of the Chilean Energy Ministry (http://www.minenergia.cl/ministerio/noticias/generales/gobierno-anuncia-fechas-de-cambio-de.html), The Chilean Government has decided to postpone the entrance into winter time (to leave DST) from March 11 2012 to April 28th 2012. The decision has not been yet formalized but it will within the next days.
Quote form the website communication:
"The "winter time" will start on Saturday, April 28 2012, clocks must go back in 60 minutes, this is, at 23:59 and 59 seconds, instead of moving into 00:00 hours of March 29 2012, clocks must adjust to be 23:00 of the same day, March 28 2012.
On Saturday , September 1st 2012, clocks must go forward in 60 minutes, this is, at 23:59 and 59 seconds, instead of moving into 00:00 hours of September 2nd 2012, clocks must adjust to be 01:00 of September 2nd 2012."
What's the procedure to have an updated database before the old DST schedule of March 11 2012?

Mauricio Parada
