Exercise Idea: Global Meeting #1923
Description
In order to have more date/time/timezone exercises, I came up with something like this:
The story is that the company you work in has gone fully remote: all employees are working from home.
This has lead to people all over the world to joining the company, which has been great.
Scheduling online meetings though has become quite hard, having to consider different time zones, preferred working hours and such.
The exercise could take a list of employees with their time zones and preferred working hours and having the student try to find the hour which all employees can participate.
See #1906

I was thinking I might propose something similar, and you beat me to it! 😄 Just for some "inspiration" (obviously, this exercise wouldn't have a UI), worldtimebuddy.

@ErikSchierboom, as discussed in the forum, I'd like to take this up!
I'll first implement it in Python, have it live for some time, and then pull it over to

@safwansamsudeen as with most other contributions, would you mind starting a forum topic discussing this particular exercise once you've figured out the rough details? Thanks!

@IsaacG - http://forum.exercism.org/t/helping-out-on-python-track/5962/11 & http://forum.exercism.org/t/exercism-community-projects/5728/2 feel like they are sufficient, as is this portion of the discussion from this repo.
But to be clear: @safwansamsudeen is going to create this exercise for the Python track. We can discuss at a later time if that implementation is then desired here in this repo.

Sounds good. If/when this does get rolled up, it would be good to have a discussion thread to discuss this specific exercise on the forum. The existing threads aren't a great place to discuss exercise specifics. Thanks!
