Whilst in British Summer Time (GMT+1) meeting requests sent to people that
arrive as email messages incorrectly identify the start time as being in GMT.
This has led to meeting participants not being informed of the correct start
time and missing the meeting. The help pages indicate that Outlook believes
that GMT includes daylight saving time - this is totally and definitively
incorrect. GMT definitively does not include daylight saving time.
It would be preferable for Outlook and all other Microsoft products which
use this incorrect definition of GMT should be modified to accord with the
correct definition.
One reference web-site (there are many others) is
