Hello, The link to the time zone does not correct for Daylight Saving Time ending in the US (and possibly other countries). For example, this is what I see when I use the time zone converter. There are two panels. On the left is the Event Time in CET (which is described elsewhere as UTC +1). The start time as 2:00 PM CET with an end time of 5:40 PM. The current time is shown as 4:41:40 PM - if the event were today, it would still have an hour remaining. The right panel has the converted time, with the start time as 7:00 AM CST with an end time of 10:40 AM. The current time is 10:41:40 AM. If the event were today, it would have ended. [A screenshot for the time zone checker. It shows the title "Evaluating Accessibility: Meeting Key Challenges" The left panel has the event time, with the start time as 2:00 PM CET with an end time of 5:40 PM. The current time is 4:41:40 PM - if the event were today, it would still have an hour left. The right panel has the converted time, with the start time as 7:00 AM CST with an end time of 10:40 AM. The current time is 10:41:40 AM. If the event were today, it would be over.] I do not have an alternative, however, providing inaccurate information could result in people not being able to participate due to incorrectly arranging their time.
