Please re-evaluate the file at

This has been updated for new DST rules.

USA time is correct in the latest version.
But Mexico DST rules are way wrong.
How/where can I provide the correct information?

This is the correct information for these time zones:
America/Cancun
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October
America/Chihuahua
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October
America/Hermosillo
It is correct as they are in the file: they don't implement DST changes.
America/Mazatlan
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October
America/Merida
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October
America/Mexico_City
DST ABBR: CDT
DST NAME: CDT
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October
America/Monterrey
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October
America/Tijuana
They are correct as they are in the file:
Start Date Rule: First Sunday in April
End Date Rule: Last Sunday in October

Thx for the information -- any chance you can update the latest csv file and attach it to this report?  That would speed up getting things fixed.

Done.
Please, review the file. I had to make some tricks to preserve the soft returns it had, so I don't know if it is 100% correctly formatted.

This has been resolved in both the 1.34 Release candidate and in the main CVS branch.  Thanks for the report and assist with the fix!
