Subject: Timezone change in Moscow
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 11:32:10 -0700
To: <bug-DateTime-TimeZone [...] rt.cpan.org>
From: Joe Fasano <joe_fasano [...] symantec.com>
Moscow Time has been UTC+4 year-round since 2011, but will change to UTC+3 permanently on 25 October 2014. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_Time Would there be a Perl fix from Timezone.pm and Zone.pm type modules?
This module tracks the IANA time zone database (https://www.iana.org/time-zones), so as soon as there's a new release with the Moscow changes, I'll do a release.

Dave, Thank you very much. Looks the Moscow changes are already in 2014f release of tzdata: http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz-announce/2014-August/000023.html The 2014f release of the tz code and data is available. It reflects the following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes: Changes affecting future time stamps Russia will subtract an hour from most of its time zones on 2014-10-26 at 02:00 local time. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev.) There are a few exceptions: Magadan Oblast (Asia/Magadan) and Zabaykalsky Krai are subtracting two hours; conversely, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug (Asia/Anadyr), Kamchatka Krai (Asia/Kamchatka), Kemerovo Oblast (Asia/Novokuznetsk), and the Samara Oblast and the Udmurt Republic (Europe/Samara) are not changing their clocks. The changed zones are Europe/Kaliningrad, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Simferopol, Europe/Volgograd, Asia/Yekaterinburg, Asia/Omsk, Asia/Novosibirsk, Asia/Krasnoyarsk, Asia/Irkutsk, Asia/Yakutsk, Asia/Vladivostok, Asia/Khandyga, Asia/Sakhalin, and Asia/Ust-Nera; Asia/Magadan will have two hours subtracted; and Asia/Novokuznetsk's time zone abbreviation is affected, but not its UTC offset. Two zones are added: Asia/Chita (split from Asia/Yakutsk, and also with two hours subtracted) and Asia/Srednekolymsk (split from Asia/Magadan, but with only one hour subtracted). (Thanks to Tim Parenti for much of the above.) -joe On 9/16/14, 11:35 AM, Dave Rolsky via RT wrote: Show quoted text

I always say what version of the IANA database a DT::TZ release is based on - see https://metacpan.org/changes/distribution/DateTime-TimeZone
