Hi,
when you click on World Clock => Fixed Time World Clock, you can enter a date/time combo. Given the start date of 06/12/2010 00:00:00 UTC, I'd prefer http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=6&month=12&... to be linked in the email.
This way an user from Berlin can immediately see the maintenance starts at Monday 01:00 in the morning and an user from Toronto/Canada can see the maintenance will affect him beginning at 19:00 Sunday local time. No stupid conversion issues for the people who don't get the thing behind time zones (like me, for the hell of it - 12h format is such a mess) :)

Sorry, I don't understand what you're asking for here. Can you give an example?
