11 -# A good source for time zone historical data outside the U.S. is
11 +# Unless otherwise specified, the source for data through 1990 is:
12 12 # Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition),
13 13 # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003).
14 +# Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources.
14 15 #
15 16 # Gwillim Law writes that a good source
16 17 # for recent time zone data is the International Air Transport
17 18 # Association's Standard Schedules Information Manual (IATA SSIM),
18 19 # published semiannually. Law sent in several helpful summaries
19 -# of the IATA's data after 1990.
20 +# of the IATA's data after 1990. Except where otherwise noted,
21 +# IATA SSIM is the source for entries after 1990.
20 22 #
21 -# Except where otherwise noted, Shanks & Pottenger is the source for
22 -# entries through 1990, and IATA SSIM is the source for entries afterwards.
23 -#
24 23 # Another source occasionally used is Edward W. Whitman, World Time Differences,
25 24 # Whitman Publishing Co, 2 Niagara Av, Ealing, London (undated), which
26 25 # I found in the UCLA library.
27 26 #
28 27 # For data circa 1899, a common source is:
29 28 # Milne J. Civil time. Geogr J. 1899 Feb;13(2):173-94.
30 29 # http://www.jstor.org/stable/1774359
31 30 #
32 31 # A reliable and entertaining source about time zones is
33 32 # Derek Howse, Greenwich time and longitude, Philip Wilson Publishers (1997).
34 33 #
35 34 # Previous editions of this database used WAT, CAT, SAT, and EAT
36 35 # for +0:00 through +3:00, respectively,
37 36 # but Mark R V Murray reports that
38 37 # 'SAST' is the official abbreviation for +2:00 in the country of South Africa,
39 38 # 'CAT' is commonly used for +2:00 in countries north of South Africa, and
40 39 # 'WAT' is probably the best name for +1:00, as the common phrase for
41 40 # the area that includes Nigeria is "West Africa".
42 41 # He has heard of "Western Sahara Time" for +0:00 but can find no reference.
43 42 #
44 43 # To make things confusing, 'WAT' seems to have been used for -1:00 long ago;
45 44 # I'd guess that this was because people needed _some_ name for -1:00,
46 45 # and at the time, far west Africa was the only major land area in -1:00.
47 46 # This usage is now obsolete, as the last use of -1:00 on the African
48 47 # mainland seems to have been 1976 in Western Sahara.
49 48 #
50 49 # To summarize, the following abbreviations seem to have some currency:
51 50 # -1:00 WAT West Africa Time (no longer used)
52 51 # 0:00 GMT Greenwich Mean Time
53 52 # 2:00 CAT Central Africa Time
54 53 # 2:00 SAST South Africa Standard Time
55 54 # and Murray suggests the following abbreviation:
56 55 # 1:00 WAT West Africa Time
57 56 # I realize that this leads to 'WAT' being used for both -1:00 and 1:00

335 316 # From Paul Eggert (2014-06-04):
336 317 # Sarah El Deeb and Lee Keath of AP report that the Egyptian government says
337 318 # the change is because of blackouts in Cairo, even though Ahram Online (cited
338 319 # above) says DST had no affect on electricity consumption. There is
339 320 # no information about when DST will end this fall. See:
340 321 # http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/el-sissi-pushes-egyptians-line-23614833
341 322 #
342 323 # For now, guess that later spring and fall transitions will use
343 324 # 2010's rules, and guess that Egypt will switch to standard time at
344 325 # 24:00 the last Thursday before Ramadan, and back to DST at 00:00 the
345 326 # first Friday after Ramadan. To implement this,
346 327 # transition dates for 2015 through 2037 were determined by running
347 328 # the following program under GNU Emacs 24.3, with the results integrated
348 329 # by hand into the table below. Ramadan again intrudes on the guessed
349 330 # DST starting in 2038, but that's beyond our somewhat-arbitrary cutoff.
