Dear chairs

Semi-annual reminder of the upcoming change due to Daylight Saving Time.
 http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2013a.html


Most of the US and Canada will be moving theirs clocks forward on Sunday,
10 March. This is three weeks earlier than Europe. Most European clocks 
will move 1 hour forward on Sunday, 31 March.

Please share this information with your groups, as it will have an impact 
on
teleconferences. Most teleconference bookings [1] are based on the US 
clocks. 
Therefore, unless groups have sent specific requests to base their 
teleconference 
times on some other timezone or to change your teleconference times for 
this period, most people outside the US will need to join teleconferences 
*one hour earlier* between 10 March and 31 March.

If you require any changes to individual teleconference times, please be 
sure to give adminreq sufficient notice [2].

Ian
