Changes affecting near-future time stamps:
Jordan switches back to standard time on December 20 of this year.
(Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Guess that this transition is at 01:00
(i.e., midnight standard time), and that the 2006-2011 transition
schedule will resume next year.
Changes affecting past time stamps:
In 2004, Cuba began DST on March 28, not April 4.

# From Paul Eggert (2013-12-11):
# Assume that this month's transition is at midnight standard time,
# since that's been the recent pattern for fall-back transitions.
# Also, guess that the schedule for 2014 on will be the same as 2006-2011.
# And as Steffen suggested, consider the past 21-month experiment to be DST.
