No single timeslot is going to be great for everyone. Alternating between times convenient for different groups of people gives a better chance of reaching everyone though. The reason for the low turnout at 02:00 UTC (mid-morning to early afternoon on this side of the world) might have been people working. With only one session scheduled during daylight in this hemisphere, it's difficult to draw any conclusions. > Do we have any data on the global distribution of @developers?
