DST pair drift

Official policy sources
The weekly drift table is generated from deployed IANA timezone data. When a government changes daylight-saving law, use the official source for the jurisdiction and wait for the updated timezone database/runtime to land before trusting future weeks.
Used for exact UTC offsets, transition instants, and abbreviation changes in both zones. This is the machine-readable layer the app can calculate from.
Check IANA Time Zone DatabasePacific/Auckland
New Zealand DST spans the southern-hemisphere summer; Chatham Islands timing needs separate care.

GOV.UK publishes the public UK clock-change rule; IANA supplies the exact UTC instants used by the page.

Use these examples when a recurring meeting, launch, class, livestream, or support shift is anchored to one city. When the gap changes, the receiving city sees the same fixed local time move by the amount shown in the drift table.

Transition-side read
Auckland changes 2 times and London changes 2 times in the next sampled year. If one side changes before the other, check recurring calendar invites during the gap week instead of assuming the old local time still works.
Best stable-window strategy
The longest sampled run is 22 weeks at +13h. For seasonal campaigns, schedule the most fragile cross-timezone work inside that run when possible.
