Or, if you insist that dates flow down the columns like I do, you could use 
this untested revision of Max's solution:

<table width=100% border=0 cellpadding=4>
   <tr align=left valign=top>
     <td width=50%>
       <dtml-in meetingDateTable>
         <dtml-if "_.int(_['sequence-index'])*2==_.int(_['count-id']) or
                   _.int(_['sequence-index'])*2==_.int(_['count-id'])+1">
           </td><td width=50%> <!-- moved to next column -->
         </dtml-if>
         <dtml-var meeting_date><br>
       </dtml-in>
     </td>
   </tr>
</table>

Gosh, wouldn't it be nice to have a sequence-midpoint ? But then somebody 
would surely want a sequence-first-quartile and so on :-)
