Adam,
Have you considered using the Infrastructure team's approach to telling folks the
correct 'local'
time to be there?
i.e. many/most Infrastructure team messages I have seen include something like:
"
To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto
or run:
date -d '2010-03-19 16:00 UTC'
"
Of course that might assume the recipients have a) a *nix box, b) that has a correct
tzdata package,
c) and that date (coreutils) is installed. :)
Admittedly your way is some what more personable than 'here run this date
command', so perhaps only
add it as a way the recipients can double check in their own local.
Good point, I'll try and remember to add that to future announcements.
Also, any reason the Reply-To on messages, that go to test-announce,
still has both
fedora-test-list(a)redhat.com and test(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
???
Just because I'm lazy and keep using 'edit as new message' to clone the
last announcement, then just make appropriate alterations =) so it's
just getting copied from week to week...
