Update request for DST

Hello.

Can you update Ukraine in these maps below? Ukraine has abolished DST and will permanently stay on UTC +02:00.

Hello Si Vonne. I suggest you DON'T change the time zone for Ukraine in any map at the time being, since according to the source linked above (timeanddate.com) Ukraine is still on summer time for another two months. It is first next year (2025) that they MIGHT not have summer time any more, if that law goes through. So I recommend waiting until after the current summer time has passed and after that law has fully passed. And I suggest you revert (or partially revert) your edit to the File:Time zones of the Greater Europe.svg for the same reason. (I have not checked the data on the other time zones you changed in the same edit, but I hope you know more about them.)

I went ahead and reverted your edit to File:Time zones of the Greater Europe.svg for now. I am not a map editor so I could not fix the map, just revert to the older version with correct time zone for Ukraine. Sorry about that. See also discussion at Wikipedia en:Talk:Time in Europe#Wrong map.
