February 23, 2021

February 23, 2021

For the last few months, the weekly Forum announcements were published at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, to honor the startup time of the in-person meetings blocked by the Covid-19 pandemic. The March 2 Announcements will be published later Tuesday or Wednesday, after announcement material can be added from a dry-run Virtual Forum scheduled for, ahem, Tuesday, March 2 at 8:30 a.m. Facilitators anticipate public virtual meetings beginning in April.
