Actually, that time zone chart is not quite accurate. The differences are correct for daylight time, but not for standard time.

PST (GMT/UCT - 8)
MST (GMT/UCT - 7)
CST (GMT/UCT - 6)
EST (GMT/UCT - 5)

PDT (GMT/UCT - 7)
MDT (GMT/UCT - 6)
CDT (GMT/UCT - 5)
EDT (GMT/UCT - 4)

And, of course, our daylight (summer) time has to be different from the rest of the world. We start earlier and end later than the European countries, so the difference from another given time zone isn't constant.

Hi,

I dont know if I can make it this Friday, but could you also point out the time in UTC too? For a continental european guest a time like "12:00pm EST" is
ultimately confusing -- is that 0000EST or 2400EST?

Sure, apologies for that :)

So for North America (or at least United States) we have:
PST (GMT - 7)
MDT (GMT -6)
CST (GMT - 5)
EST (GMT - 4)

Once I get a head count of who theoretically would be interested if the time was right, we can start discussing what specific time will work and I'll make sure to do the conversion to GMT :) As of now it looks like 1200 (1900 GMT) on Friday isn't going to work as there just doesn't seem to be availability/interest.

All the best,
Joel
