Conversation
The January meetup was shown as being at 4:30PM ET due to the UTC offset in the front matter being `-04:00` while the current east coast time is `-05:00`. This corrects that for this event (even though it's over) and adds a note to the README and the `event-frontmatter.txt` template file about the correct offsets for Eastern Time, which is likely to be the most relevant timezone for the community. The conversion to local timezone is done in JavaScript so it doesn't really matter what the offset is so long as the overall time is correct but thinking in east coast time is probably the mostly likely mindset for contributors (and causes less friction than requiring all times be specified in UTC).

local timezone.
