>Organization:
jpman project
>Environment:

	src/bin/date/date.1 revision 1.37 (HEAD)

	Following revisions have same typo:
	RELENG_4 revision 1.34.2.2
	RELENG_3 revision 1.26.2.6

>Description:

	I think that specifying -v+3H on October 29 will not reach
	October 20.  So I think that this is a typo.

>How-To-Repeat:

	$ man 1 date

>Fix:

	If "October 29" is correct, "October 20" should be replaced
	with "October 30", as follows:
	
--- date.1.orig	Tue Jun 27 22:08:48 2000
+++ date.1	Tue Jun 27 22:15:33 2000

 Likewise, if the date is October 29, 0:30 and the DST adjustment means that
 the clock goes back at 02:00 to 01:00, using
 .Fl v No +3H
-will be necessary to reach October 20, 2:30.
+will be necessary to reach October 30, 2:30.
 .Pp
 When the date is adjusted to a specific value that doesn't actually exist
 .Pq for example March 26, 1:30 BST 2000 in the Europe/London timezone ,
