[tei-council] [TEI-L] Changes on the TEI Board (fwd)

[Brett Barney]

Hmmm. In looking up the conversion for myself, I too noticed that no one is
on CET currently and assumed (perhaps erroneously) that Laurent was doing
what a lot of Americans do--use the common abbreviation (e.g., EST [Eastern
Standard Time]) for the time zone, regardless of whether its currently
"standard" or "daylight savings." And according to that logic, my googling
told me that Spain is currently 7 hours ahead of me, in what we in the US
refer to as the Central time zone. So that would mean 8:00 am, right? And
it would mean 6:00 a.m. for you, if you are two hours earlier than I am.
Maybe I've messed up the calculations, though; I've never claimed to be a
math whiz. At any rate, it will be important to get this right, so maybe
Laurent can clarify?

Before I confirm, can someone check my calculations? As far as I can
see, no-one is on CET at the moment, because they're all on CEST, but
assuming the CET is correct, it would be 1 hour ahead of UTC, which is 7
hours ahead of Pacific Daylight Time (daylight saving time in the
Pacific zone). So that would be 7 am my time. Is that right?

If so, I can attend.

I wish all these summer times and daylight savings times had never existed.

Cheers,
Martin
