    WSB – I love these daily lists of events, but I wonder if you would consider publishing late the night before? Sometimes the events start early, and I know we could look on the Events page but this list is so helpful to know what is happening that dayJust a thought from one person, but most of all a continued thank you for all you do for our community!

      Hi, thank you. If the list is published the night before, it may be buried several items down before people show up for the day. We publish standalone previews for some notable one-offs (for example, the Ukraine relief speaker, from today’s list). I try to do that for early events too. But as you observe, almost everything on the list has been on the calendar for days or weeks, so you can look ahead there to tomorrow, next weekend, etc., at any time! The list is intended to be one last reminder – TR
