I would like to give some details on the points:

1) I'd like to shut off the messages area... I think this is a little
confusing, and it didn't work well for me.  Is there a switch to remove it
from the top-right menu area, or do I have to learn how to build this app
from source?
=> The message area? You mean the chat in the dashboard? You can hide that
by configuration.

2) I'm having some time zone shift problems.  The main group is in GMT-5,
but have satellite offices across the US GMT-6, GMT-7.  Should I set the
default to GMT/UTC, and then have each user declare their timezone?  I
think it's set to GMT-5 right now, and some appointments shifted times.
 What's best practices on time zones?
=> The only important timezone is the timezone of the user profile. Nothing
else matters. There should be no issue.

3) Is there a way to change the way dates display in text form.  It keeps
showing DD-MM-YYYY (European Abbreviation), where in the US, people expect
MM-DD-YYYY (US Abbreviation), or maybe DD-Month-YYYY  3-Oct-2012 would work
for everybody, but introduces language into date display?
=> That task requires actually to recompile the client at the moment

4) I just installed 1.9.1, and I can't seem to drag files from the My Files
area, to the Room Files area.  I can upload to both, and both work fine.  I
can drag recordings from My Recordings to Group? Recordings.   Is this a
bug, or is it me?
=> That might be a bug, however somebody would need to verify that with
current latest revision.

5) There's a mismatch in naming of Room types, from the Calendar Add Event
dialog, it shows, Conference, Event and Restricted.  It's unclear to me,
what Event is?  Is this me, again?
=> That is already fixed in the SVN version with the new Calendar UI.
