Thanks for keeping track of this, Honah! +1 to keep the Wednesday 9 AM Pacific Time meeting every 3 weeks
I'm ok to pause the 8 PM PST meeting - this time does not work for me personally. As for two time slots recurring every 6 weeks each, IMHO, if people in those meetings end up being distinct groups because of time zones being too far off, I'd prefer to have the same 3 week cadence. It won't cause extra burden if there's no overlap. Cheers, Dmitri.
