Thank you for your interest.  The meeting tonight (with Yihui Xie on R
Markdown and TinyTeX) is 7 to 8pm UK time. The UK time now is
https://time.is/UK.

The TeX Hour is every Thursday evening, usually 6:30 to 7:30pm UK time.

ASIDE ON HUMANS AND UTC
I'm sure UTC is best for single events, as in computer logs and
international flights. For human messages regarding recurring events I'm
not sure. The usual time for the TeX Hour is 6:30 to 7:30pm UK time.

Because of daylight saving time (DST), the corresponding UTC time for the
TeX Hour changes twice a year. And if the guest also has DST, they'll also
be changes twice a year, perhaps on different dates, when converting to
local time.

best regards

Jonathan
