# From Arthur David Olson (2009--3-18):
# The Tunis Afrique Presse News Agency notice contains this: "This measure is due to the fact
# that the fasting month of ramadan coincides with the period concerned by summer time.
# Therefore, the standard time will be kept unchanged the whole year long."
# So foregoing DST seems to be an exception (albeit one that may be repeated in the  future).

# From Mariano Absatz (2009-03-13):
# Yesterday (with our usual 2-day notice) the Province of San Luis
# decided that next Sunday instead of "staying" @utc-03:00 they will go
# to utc-04:00 until the second Saturday in October...
#
# The press release is at

# (I couldn't find the decree, but
# <a href="http://www.sanluis.gov.ar">
# www.sanluis.gov.ar
# <a/>
# is the official page for the Province Government).
#
# There's also a note in only one of the major national papers (La Nación) at

# http://www.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=1107912
# </a>
# 
# The press release says:
#  (...) anunció que el próximo domingo a las 00:00 los puntanos deberán
# atrasar una hora sus relojes.
#
# A partir de entonces, San Luis establecerá el huso horario propio de
# la Provincia. De esta manera, durante el periodo del calendario anual
# 2009, el cambio horario quedará comprendido entre las 00:00 del tercer
# domingo de marzo y las 24:00 del segundo sábado de octubre.
# Quick&dirty translation
# (...) announced that next Sunday, at 00:00, Puntanos (the San Luis
# inhabitants) will have to turn back one hour their clocks
#
# Since then, San Luis will establish its own Province timezone. Thus,
# during 2009, this timezone change will run from 00:00 the third Sunday
# in March until 24:00 of the second Saturday in October.

# From Arthur David Olson (2009-03-16):
# The unofficial claim at

# http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/san-luis-new-time-zone.html

# is that "The province will most likely follow the next daylight saving schedule,
# which is planned for the second Sunday in October."
