Seriously, though: please specify time in UTC, it is universal. Mountain Time is MST, an actual time zone. It is GMT -7/-6 The point still stands: time on an international community MUST be given as UTC, not local.
Feel free to report it in bugzilla ;)
Thanks for the info, I'll change my announcement now before it goes out ;)
I wouldn't say it's a MUST to use UTC, the Mozilla project uses Pacific Time for everything, for example, partly for historical reasons (Netscape was based in California), partly because the largest Mozilla offices are still in that timezone, even though it's global project. We saw though that it helps a lot to specify both such a conventional timezone and UTC, and perhaps even some time conversion URL for the beginning of the timeframe, e.g. http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=8&month=1&year=2009...
