Thanks for the heads-up. It looks like we'll need a new zone
Europe/Astrakhan, split off from the existing Europe/Volgograd. Will the
new zone will switch from UTC+3 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00, to UTC+4? This
detail is not in the above URL.
In the tz database, rather than give the new zone an invented
abbreviation like "ASTT" that does not correspond to existing practice,
I'd like to get out of the name-inventing business and just use "+04".
