Bert's suggestion is an excellent one. It would eliminate problems with 
daylight saving time as well.

Heh.  It wasn't me.  I'm only observing.  I had used the Boston time,
because I'm used to it.  It was someone else who came late, at 23 UTC,
after people had left the meeting room.

I’m pretty sure that as an ombudsperson I should step in only when there is a 
conflict ;)

But I’ll say that we have had good experience sending meeting announcements 
with a link to the time&date web site, showing the desired time as local plus a 
gazillion other time zones. Here’s what it would have looked like for Boston 
6pm:

At the bottom it even lists the time in UTC for James ;)
