[Fwd: Daylight Saving Time ends in Europe one week earlier than in US]

FYI:

We will be keeping the meeting time at a 9AM PST, on Tuesday of next week.

If I understand correctly, this only affects Mark, and only for one week.

Dear chairs

Semi-annual reminder of the end of Daylight Savings Time coming next  
weekend (Europe) and the following weekend (USA):
  http://timeanddate.com/time/dst2009b.html


Most European clocks shift back 1 hour relative to UTC on Sunday October  
25 2009.
Most of the US shifts its clocks back one week later, on Sunday November  
1, 2009.


Between October 25 and November 1, the time difference between US and  
Europe will be 1 hour less than it currently is. This means that for that  
week all Zakim teleconferences that are scheduled according to the US  
clock change (which is the majority of telecons) will start *one hour  
later* 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].
