I have an apology to make: 

When planning this meetup, I handled the timezone conversion incorrectly on my end and I intended for this to be held at 8:00PM CST (GMT-6) on Thursday, February 7th. This announcement should have read that the meetup is occurring on Friday, February 8th @ 02:00 UTC for it to match what I was intending at the time. I am very sorry to anyone who turned up a couple hours ago and had no one around to talk with, this was absolutely not my intent.

Going forward, we will be holding this meetup at 02:00UTC on the first Thursday of the month (as previously advertised), which means for people in North America it will be Wednesday evening. We are also looking into holding a second regular meetup each month at a time more appropriate for operators outside of North America; I should have more details for everyone regarding this in the next week. 

As I am aware many of you keep busy schedules and require some lead time for planning, we will hold the February meetup next week on Thursday, February 14th @ 02:00. After this meetup we will be going with the first Thursday of the month as previously advertised, which means the following meetup will be held March 7th @ 02:00 UTC. 

I apologize again for the confusion, I hope you are all having a good week.
