Unless I'm misreading the schedule, RacketCon has a long lunch break that ends at 17:30 UTC, with a presentation starting then (the one before mine).
My presentation isn't any more special than that one!
If it makes sense to move the meet-up at all (?), may I suggest moving it to 17:00 UTC?

That sounds like a good idea @greghendershott .
I've **moved the _online_ portion of tomorrow's Racket meetup to 17:00 UTC**.
I'm not aware of the in-person events, so I'll leave it to the organizers of those events to coordinate with attendees on the time that works best for you.
For remote folks, I assume most people will just be watching the live stream, but this meetup could be a good break and forum to discuss the talks, for those (like myself, I'm afraid) who won't be attending this year ๐
