All times for events should be in UTC or atleast mention UTC time in
addition to local time (especially for events such as plenaries which have
a larger number of remote participants). On one hand IETF wants more remote
participants. On the other hand, I see resistance to do some
(UI/Notification fixes) from several volunteers of IETF.

I hope you all are aware of rot-13. please use www.rot13.com to decipher
the following.
