  Cuba has ended its three years of permanent DST.

* Changes affecting past time stamps.

  Many transitions in Chile from 1918 through 1998 have been updated
  to reflect <http://www.horaoficial.cl/horaof.htm>. This also affects Palmer base
  in Antarctica. I also updated some incorrect rules for use of
  Argentina daylight saving rules at Palmer before 1982.

* Changes affecting commentary only.

  The URLs for Paraguay's daylight saving decress have been updated.

* Changes affecting the web page.

  Add a pointer to <http://www3.sympatico.ca/c.walton/canada_dst.html>.
