In a nutshell: Does Fedora need a minimal policy for shifting the
schedule of the #fedora-meeting channel to account for DST?

Sticking with UTC sounds simple.  It's tempting to just use the geek
perspective and say that's the standard, but this standard causes
actual problems for humans, who govern their lives by local clocks.
Moving meeting times back and forth in local time during the year
seems arbitrary, and can create new conflicts that were carefully
negotiated months before.  That's a barrier, and therefore my and the
Board's job to assess and remove if possible.


This falls into the giant <shrug> category for me.

as long as we're all on the same page, it's fine w/me either way.
