with all the junk i do with international folk, i find:

	www.timeanddate.com

an invaluable resource. the meeting planner rocks! of course, a simple:

	date -u

will give you UTC time (well, GMT), and from there you can make
necessary calculations. and if you have a PDA there are several apps
that do this, though i'm not sure if they're free.

and to make this more GNOME specific,

	gworldclock - uses a GTK+ interface for timezones
	tzwatch - a CLI based app that keeps the format similar to gworldclock
(for the zone list)
