I'm fine with the meetings being at 7am, instead of 6am, when the clock changes back!

I always **object** strongly to shifting time around for various of the sub regional and country or sub coutry seasonal changes. Meetings need to be in UTC that is it manage your own local times yourselves... That said if you want to sey a NEW UTC. time slot gor the rest of this year and then ALL of 2024 until some future review point fine... Just don't play with times seasonally that only exacerbates disadvantage and barriers to some... AND causes confusion... Calendar invites need to be regularised and mafe for months out including any compensation and adjusting gor obvious things like future ICANN meetings Other Global events... That way we have predictability and changes only made for exception (yes even the odd cancellation if needs be) and ALWAYS in UTC.

With the new geographic location of ALAC members and with the European and North American winter time zones, several people have expressed a desire to shift the 13:00 UTC call one hour back to 14:00 UTC, which will make the time less painful for people living on the West Coast of the American continent. I mentioned this on our last CPWG call and have not received any objection or reason why we should not accommodate this change, so it is the co-chair's intent to make next week's call at 14:00 UTC.
