Codewind weekly call UTC meeting time is off by an hour due to daylight saving time

Open jgwest opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

The UTC Codewind weekly call meeting time is currently off by one hour due to shift to EDT (UTC-4) from EST (UTC-5).

Weekly meetings: The Codewind team holds weekly calls every Tuesday and Thursday at 9:00 AM Eastern Time / 14:00 UTC.

@jgwest Any suggestions here? I want the times to be accurate, but don't want to have to update it again in two weeks

@johnmcollier Until we as a society drop Daylight Saving Time in this timezone, I think this necessarily means it needs to be updated twice a year 😃 . (Note that UTC != British Summer Timer, thus no need to update in 2 weeks).

@jgwest Not trying to be cheeky, but I believe the problem has resolved itself 😛, can this be closed?

@johnmcollier If someone shows up at 14:00 UTC, which is the value we currently have listed, they will miss our meeting by an hour. 14:00 UTC is 10AM EDT.
