Chris de Almeida: I think you were made an owner of the TC39 cal?

<Justin Ridgewell>
Is it possible for you to move the new AsyncContext meeting into TC39?
15:01
<Chris de Almeida>
sure. TZ is UTC or... ?
15:04
<Justin Ridgewell>
Actually, Jordan helped with this last night
15:09
<Chris de Almeida>
sure -- it appears the meeting IS in UTC. notably, it will not shift for DST. is that an issue for anyone?
15:10
<Justin Ridgewell>
Hasn't DST past?
15:11
<Justin Ridgewell>
I think it's fine to use UTC since everyone won't shift times at the sameā€¦ time.
15:12
<Chris de Almeida>
but it means anyone in countries observing DST, will have the meeting at a different time half the year
15:14
<Chris de Almeida>
so for example, for me right now, the meeting is at 11, but in November it will move to 10 and then in March move back to 11
15:15
<Chris de Almeida>
usually we would want these meetings to observe DST because most of us (I think) are in TZs that observe DST. we don't all change over at the same time, but this usually will only manifest in two meetings per year ending up at a different time for people in one of the TZs

<Chris de Almeida>
we'd be moving into the left column in November
16:02
<Justin Ridgewell>
Let's worry about this in Nov?
16:02
<Justin Ridgewell>
Even if we were to schedule this in a different timezone, we're still going to have this headache
16:02
<Justin Ridgewell>
Who's DST do we use?
16:02
<Justin Ridgewell>
US and EU don't share an end date
16:02
<Justin Ridgewell>
China doesn't have DST
16:03
<Chris de Almeida>
US/EU -> two meetings per year ending up at a different time for people in one of the TZs
16:05
<Chris de Almeida>
Even if we were to schedule this in a different timezone, we're still going to have this headache
just a question of what would be the least disruptive. what's the utilitarian optimization here

My experience is that programming against UTC ends up being more disruptive because conflicts are scheduled in local time. Anyway, agree that we should worry about this in November.
