As I recall the decision on the time was heavily constrained by people in Europe not wanting to work late on Fridays.  With that in mind, are people okay sticking with the UTC time, at least until summer time kicks in across the pond at the end of the month?  That would mean 10am EST (aka 8am in Amelia's house) for the next few weeks.  

 

Anyone have conflicts one way or the other (my sleep schedule notwithstanding)?”

 

W3C meeting times tend to be fixed on Eastern time. In this instance 9am EDT is 1pm GMT/2pm CET, so the TF meeting happens an hour earlier in the day for those of us in Europe until we switch to daylight time.

 

This works for me. Happy with sticking to UTC if that’s easier for anyone else in Europe and/or on the TF call though.
