Hi,

with the greatest respect, meeting times are usually issued in UTC/GMT with
a link to convert to local time... That is why we have UTC.

I have no idea of USA Oregan Time, nor Pacific Time (with the GMT -07:00)
really means. I've done these conversions for meetings sooooo many wrong in
the past, that we just agree "the meeting is at xx:yy UTC, now go figure it
out"

An easy way for this is to use timeworld link, heck... it even keeps up
with daylight saving time :)

Here is one link, that we use for our meetings on lubuntu.

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20130723T20&p1=1440

It shows quite clearly on the wiki page ..

I hope that helps, I'm one of the admins for lubuntu - please do not shout
at me when I try to help on the areas I know of :)

Regards,

Phill.
