"Couple" of questions.

CANs: Is it possible to have the CANs on the same day for consistency? Is there a reason the CANs are on different days? Is it to accommodate people who have a recurring commitment on, for example, Tuesdays, and wouldn't be able to make any Tuesday CANs? (Just picking Tuesdays) I know Mateo you have specifically mentioned this challenge personally, and I don't want this to come off as dismissive because I think your presence is critical because you bring so much to CANs, but I wonder if (a) there is a way we can determine how extensive of a challenge this is for the broader membership and/or (b) we can draw on other brigades' experiences via CfA Slack. I would very much value consistency from a personal perspective and a project/expectation management perspective, but the former leaves us with two data points and the latter is an intuition based on brief experience and Brigade Congress convos.

ATA speaker series again re: consistency -- Is this floating between the first week and the last week because that is how ATA's schedule works?

CAN: I'm open to having both monthly CANs on the same days of the month. I have an almost weekly commitment on Tuesdays, and I know other people have other weekly commitments like evening classes, so the idea on doing a M/W or T/W staggered schedule was to accommodate people. But let's go with consistency and adjust from there if needed. It certainly is more simple. ATA: I think January was just weird for scheduling for ATA. @smarrison could elaborate on that.
