Merchant Business Group meeting - Monday 24th May at 21h00 UTC

Dear Merchant Business Group members


We plan to hold our next meeting on Monday 24th May at 21h00 UTC (14h00
PDT/17h00 EDT/22h00 BST) (Tuesday 25th May at 07h00 AEST).

 

Please join if you can as we would like to talk about the future direction
of the group, particularly in the context of its current formation as a
Business Group (which cost non-members money to join) and a proposal to move
to become a Community Group (which does not).
