I agree on the general sentiment of *one* deadline time.
I'd prefer it expressed in a TZ which iCalendar files and most

Looks to me as if the cut off is start of business for the RFC Editor.
That makes sense to me, no matter how much you try to change the cut
off you can't make it any later than the point where the editor needs
to start work.
No, the RFC Editor does not edit drafts after the cutoff,

OK, guilty. My point was that the cutoff time seemed to be
From my point of view, it can be any timezone as long as the cutoff
time is the same in all cases. While we are on topic, I propose to use
AOE as defined by IEEE (I think 802.16).

AOE == UTC-1200. UTC seems much more natural.
Just in case you are not familiar with AOE, it stands for Anywhere on
Earth (See http://www.ieee802.org/16/aoe.html)

Yeah, I can deal with any TZ actually (AOE is one suggestion and I think
most intuitive, UTC is another), but can't handle the varying cutoff
times :).
On why AOE is intuitive, everyone gets to treat the deadline with their
own TZ substituted for AOE (the actual deadline for most people would

Cool concept: the deadline [time] has not passed if, anywhere on earth, the
deadline date has not yet passed. I like it.
And, just to keep Henrik sane, it looks like
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_time_zones#UTC.E2.88.9212.2C_Y should
be a real time zone that calendaring systems could understand (as opposed to
AOE) - did I get this right?

Hi,
I just found out that I missed the deadline for early-bird registration
and payment. I registered early, but was planning to pay just in time,
but alas the deadline has passed. I was thinking that the deadline is
later in the day, end of the business day Eastern time.
We have
