:( I got timezones mixed up.

Thats a shame Skeeve, timezones can be hard if you're not used to working with them.
I'd hate for other remote participants to be caught by the simple error you encountered. Luckily there is a handy webpage which does accurate conversion.

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

You can put in your timezone and the one you're interested in and it will do the conversion for you. No need for guess work.

Here is an example for Skeeve which converts time in Kuala Lumpur (as shown on the APRICOT 2014 programme) into his local time in Sydney.

There is even a "Meeting Planner" which will show you all the times for the whole day. No longer is there an excuse to miss a meeting.

Here is another example for Skeeve showing how Kuala Lumpur and Sydney time matches up for today.

I hope this helps all remote APRICOT participants and I look forward to seeing more remote participation.

Regards,
Dean
