Except, as I pointed out, I don't know if your calendar is for this
week or next. So e.g. 16:00 UTC is noon here this week, but next week
it will be 11am. A lot of other meetings are set in local time and
shift when the time shifts, so I need to be able to figure out any
overlaps. WHICH WEEK?
Apologies Josh for not getting your point.
As the meetings should be taking place on a weekly basis i think the
best would be to base it on the time after the time switch happens in
the US, so it would be standard time for all involved parties. Also, as
we're already on Tuesday and Friday is a public holiday here in Germany
at least i would vote for starting the meetings in earnest next week.
This would also be in line with FESCO approval of the committee which
will be discussed on Wednesday's FESCO meeting.
In half a year from now we can then move the meeting time 1h to
accommodate for the switch to summer time.
Thanks & regards, Phil
