Tehran is currently UTC/GMT +4:30 hours. The current downtime is for 2:00 PM Pacific, or 1:30 AM in Tehran. That seems to be unfortunately still "prime time" for the nightly demonstrations, one of which is going on now.
If the idea is to avoid such collisions, 5:00 PM or even 6:00 PM PDT would probably be better.
Speaking of critical timings and "demonstrations", anyone in the community have contacts/ideas for "last mile" connections in Teheran? The protesters are getting blocked right and left trying to get 'net access. There are some, ehrm, "boxen" out on the 'net to allow them to get around the active blocking going on, but most of the citizen reporters are unable to even get a conection to allow proxying out. Some serious censoring of 'net access going on. Just curious - replies off list if desired. Thanks in advance. -- steve
