Ah, excellent! This is something I was going to request anyway =) Is there an abbreviation for GMT+1?

.... good question
GMT in the greenwich meridian (Greenwich Meridian Time), you can also call it universal atomic time (UTC). Less used though; although it does sound good.
GMT+1 used to be called the Paris meridian... I think you can use CET
central european time.. yep that's it ... 12 800 000 hits on google .... CET is the abbreviation : paris, berlin, most of europe

Abbreviations change for about 4-6 months out of each year though.

Actually I doubt Blizzard will change the server times to match the changes in earth time so its probably be all ok.

I think Guest meant daylight saving time. Wikipedia knows:
Wikipedia wrote:All countries in Europe, except Iceland, observe DST and switch at the same universal time (1:00 UTC) in all five zones, going from 10pm/0/1/2/3am LST to 11pm/1/2/3/4am LDT simultaneously on the last Sunday in March, and back from 11pm/1/2/3/4am LDT to 10pm/0/1/2/3am LST on the last Sunday in October.
Now you know
