Hello,
I think the only effect of giving timezones for F2Fs is the risk of
giving the wrong timezone and consequent confusion. I suggest that
for F2Fs we henceforth give all times implicitly as local time.
[For non-F2Fs, we should continue to give times in ET, i.e. local
time on the east coast of the USA. We should not try to say EDT
and EST because there's a good chance of getting it wrong/forgetting
to update, and also because in Europe S stands for summer while
in the USA it stands for, err, not summer.]
[[FWIW in another standards body I also give times in UTC. This is
especially helpful around the summer/winter time switch instants
of maximum confusion, when Europe and the USA are out of their usual
phase relationship.]]
Thanks,
Mark
