"Just a reminder that we will be launching the ICFP functional programming
contest this Thursday (August 27) at 5:00 pm Eastern Time (which is 23:00
UTC)."
Did I say 23:00 UTC? Oops -- I meant 21:00 UTC.
Once again: The contest starts Thursday 8/27 at 5:00 pm EDT,
which is 21:00 UTC.
The web page has it right: http://www.ai.mit.edu/extra/icfp-contest/
Sorry for any confusion.
