# New South Wales and subjurisdictions have their own ideas of a fun time.
|
||
|
|
# Based on law library research by John Mackin (john@basser.cs.su.oz),
|
||
|
|
# who notes:
|
||
|
|
# In Australia, time is not legislated federally, but rather by the
|
||
|
|
# individual states. Thus, while such terms as ``Eastern Standard Time''
|
||
|
|
# [I mean, of course, Australian EST, not any other kind] are in common
|
||
|
|
# use, _they have NO REAL MEANING_, as they are not defined in the
|
||
|
|
# legislation. This is very important to understand.
|
||
|
|
# I have researched New South Wales time only; . . .I hope that perhaps a
|
||
|
|
# resident of each state could be found to do it for their own state.
|
||
|
|
# (And I can guarantee that Victoria and NSW are different, so the link
|
||
|
|
# between them in the current australasia file must be broken.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# From Robert Elz (May 5, 1989):
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# From next year (1990) NSW will revert to ending DST on the 1st
|
||
|
|
# Sunday in March (rather than the third, which it appears will
|
||
|
|
# continue to be what everyone else uses).
