|
#
|
|
# The starting and ending dates below (from which the rules are derived)
|
|
# are from Whitaker's Almanack for 1987, page 146.
|
|
# 1960 is the earliest year for which dates are given;
|
|
# Whitaker's notes that British Summer Time (and, in some years, Double Summer
|
|
# Time) was observed in earlier years but does not give start and end dates.
|
|
#
|
|
# A source at the British Information Office in New York avers that it's
|
|
# known as "British" Summer Time in all parts of the United Kingdom.

# The information from Tom Hofmann is (as far as I know) not entirely correct.

# After a request from chongo at amdahl I tried to retrieve all information
|
|
# about DST in Europe. I was able to find all from about 1969.
|
|
#
|
|
# ...standardization on DST in Europe started in about 1977 with switches on
|
|
# first Sunday in April and last Sunday in September...
|
|
# In 1981 UK joined Europe insofar that
|
|
# the starting day for both shifted to last Sunday in March. And from 1982
|
|
# the whole of Europe used DST, with switch dates April 1 and October 1 in
|
|
# the Sov[i]et Union. In 1985 the SU reverted to standard Europe[a]n switch
|
|
# dates...
|
|
#
|
|
# It should also be remembered that time-zones are not constants; e.g.
|
|
# Portugal switched in 1976 from MET (or CET) to WET with DST...
|
|
# Note also that though there were rules for switch dates not
|
|
# all countries abided to these dates, and many individual deviations
|
|
# occurred, though not since 1982 I believe. Another note: it is always
|
|
# assumed that DST is 1 hour ahead of normal time, this need not be the
|
|
# case; at least in the Netherlands there have been times when DST was 2 hours
|
|
# in advance of normal time.
