Re: Time zones in IETF agenda

Can anyone help an ignorant European?  Given a meeting time of 12:00
Noon ET [sic] on Sunday 10th March 2013, what is that in UTC?  Daylight
saving will have started by then in the USA but not in Europe so the
scope for being an hour late or an hour early is much increased.

I have a recurring remote participation problem with the
IETF Meeting Agendas, because it specifies the time of WG meeting
slots
in local time (local to the IETF Meeting), but does not give the
local time zone *anywhere*.

I would appreciate if the local time zone indication would be added
like somewhere at the top of the page, to each IETF meeting agenda.

So in this interesting discussion of UTC, Martin has actually made an
excellent point.  Having UTC listings for the agenda would be very
helpful, or an alternative agenda showing UTC.
