[Bug 1539491] [NEW] Update to 2016a

 

Public bug reported:

Changes affecting future time stamps
America/Cayman will not observe daylight saving this year after all.
Revert our guess that it would. (Thanks to Matt Johnson.)
Asia/Chita switches from +0800 to +0900 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev.)
Asia/Tehran now has DST predictions for the year 2038 and later,
to be March 21 00:00 to September 21 00:00. This is likely better
than predicting no DST, albeit off by a day every now and then.
Changes affecting past and future time stamps
America/Metlakatla switched from PST all year to AKST/AKDT on
2015-11-01 at 02:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
America/Santa_Isabel has been removed, and replaced with a
backward compatibility link to America/Tijuana. Its contents were
apparently based on a misreading of Mexican legislation.
Changes affecting past time stamps
Asia/Karachi's two transition times in 2002 were off by a minute.
(Thanks to Matt Johnson.)
