proposed meeting Apr 13, UTC 13 (was Re: [OSGeo-Edu] proposed meeting Apr 11)

[Puneet Kishor]

No one more confused than I -- not only do I have to contend with this  
#^&*%^ Daylight Savings Time change, I live in GMT-6, but since  
yesterday I am in GMT-8... what fun!

Ok, here is another try --

Proposed: UTC (or GMT/Zulu)-time used: Thursday, April 13, 2006 at  
13:00:00

Times at other relevant locations
GMT-8: Tue 06:00 AM
GMT-6: Tue 08:00 AM
GMT-5: Tue 09:00 AM
GMT-0: Tue 02:00 PM
GMT+1: Tue 03:00 PM
GMT+2: Tue 04:00 PM
GMT+9: Tue 11:00 PM

Hope this works for most everyone.
