Dear Chairs,

Semi-annual reminder of the Daylight Savings Time change coming up at
the end of this week (Europe) and the following weekend (USA):

     http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2011.html

Most European clocks shift back 1 hr relative to UTC on Sun. Oct. 30 2011.
Most of the US clocks shift back 1 hr one week later, on Sun. Nov. 06, 2011.


Between October 30 and November 6, the time difference between US and
Europe will be 1 hour less than it currently is. This means that for
that
week the Zakim teleconferences that are scheduled according to the US
clock will start *one hour earlier* in local time for most Europeans.

The time links in each date of the teleconference calendar [1] confirm
the time that Zakim has been instructed to start the teleconference.

If you are unsure about the scheduled time of any teleconference,
check the UTC link above the teleconference name on the specific date
of that
teleconference; e.g. [2].

If you require any changes to individual teleconference times, please
be sure to give adminreq sufficient notice [3].
