FYI: Daylight Savings Time discrepancy

[Brian E Carpenter <brc at zurich.ibm.com>]

Hi folks,

North America changes to Daylight Savings Time this weekend 10/11 March.

Europe changes two weeks later, 24/25 March, immediately after the IETF.

This has consequences.

1. During those two weeks, the time difference between North America
and Europe will be one hour less than usual. For example 9:00 a.m.
in New York will be 14:00 p.m. in Prague. Please bear this in mind for
planning any conference calls, remote participation in the IETF, and
adjusting your watch on arrival in Prague.

2. There are predictions that some calendaring software will get
very confused during those two weeks, due to the late change of
date for North America. So don't trust your software without
checking.
