CEST, EST, EDT...  All the Standard and Daylight and Summer
and other special timezones create confusion.

The WorldClock link included in scheduling messages was meant 
to dispel any timezone confusion --

Though, I see now that this one includes Central Europe Standard 
Time (which is not correct today) and Eastern Daylight Savings 
Time, which are sometimes at odds with each other, and is based 
on Eastern Daylight Savings Time (which will not be accurate year 
round), plus the generic Pacific Time.


I think the link below (modulo date and potentially MIT-based 
time changes), which has generic Central Europe Time, Eastern 
Time, and Pacific Time, and is based on Eastern Time, should 
serve in all cases --

Heather, other chairs -- Please note the latter link above,
which should be better for future meeting-related messages.
