I think this doesn't address the core problem, but please correct me
if I'm wrong.

For example, one set of teams choose a time standard that changes
every six months, and another set of teams choose a time standard that
is fixed.  This creates possibilities for meeting room conflict
whenever DST is encountered.

We could have a DST channel and a UTC channel, but that doesn't
resolve the issue of everyone already lurking in only one channel.
