It should be implemented in people's brains.
How this goes, usually, is:
Them:...before 6PM.
Me: 6PM... Ours? The server's? The user's?
Them: GMT, of course.
Me: So that's 7PM London right now, and changes to 6PM in November?
Them: What no are you stupid. Always 6PM GMT.
Me:* jumps off a cliff*
Sorry, but are you under the impression that GMT means London time, or that it observes British Summer Time?
I too was similarly confused by the original comment at first, but I think they're referring to the fact that 6pm GMT is 7pm in London during the summer (BST), and 6pm in London the rest of the year. It seems OP and "them" are both correct in that hypothetical exchange.
