I never understood why this is such a binary discussion, either wintertime, or +1 hour for summer.

Why not settle right in the middle, +0.5 hour = EU time :)




These should have been new timezones:

  UTC: UK, Faroese, Ireland, Spain, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Portugal, Iceland
  UTC+40' (Hamburg time): Corsica, Germany, Switzerland, Italy (Rome and west), Norway
  UTC+1h (Görlitz time): Austria, Slovenia, Czechia, Croatia, Italy (east of Rome)
  UTC+1h 20' (Krakow time): Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Montenegro, Albania, Sweden
  UTC+1h 40' (Braşov time): Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Lithuania, Finland, Estonia
  UTC+2h: Belarus, Turkey (west of Ankara)
  UTC+2h 30': Turkey (Ankara and east), Cyprus, Ukraine
More timezones but not needing daylight saving.
