I'm not a big fan of making changes that night, but this was announced
several months ago at IETF, NANOG and several mailing lists. I didn't
hear anyone object to the schedule when it was announced. I did hear
people complain about the RADB maintainer fee, so people were listening.
For better or worse, is it getting a bit late to go changing the schedule?
Is anyone still using the ripe-181 version of the IRR?
