Funny thing is when I try the date from the announcement:

> All Final Version (-01 and up) submissions are due by UTC 24:00 Monday,
February 25.

I get this:

$ date --date='24:00 Feb 25, 2013 UTC'
date: invalid date `24:00 Feb 25, 2013 UTC'

Seriously, what the heck is 24:00?  Is that like the meeting we'll have in
the afternoon at about 13:90?

Paul
