AFAICT, the release of version 2026e was not delayed by arguments over the
three-letter abbreviation for Manitoba’s new zone, despite how it may appear
from the high volume of list traffic on this topic.
Rather, it was delayed by the lack of evidence of signed legislation making the
time change official. This is required, as stated before, and doubly so because
of other recent “almost” changes that were rescinded before becoming official.
Even that "delay" was a published change 12 days after the initial
public announcement of intent on the radio (and then in a press release)
and /_within a day of the actual effective date becoming public_/.
I don't like using the word "delay" with that short of a time line.
