on Thursdays. I am afraid 14:00 UTC on Tuesday and Wednesday is not feasible for staff support due to other commitments. This leaves us with Monday and Friday. 14:00 UTC on Friday would be the weekend for Lili. As a result, I see Monday, 14:00 UTC, as the
only “viable” option I am afraid. Let’s discuss when we meet on our leadership call.
