Agenda

   This meeting will be hosted on Zoom at 16:00GMT (17:00CET, 12:00EDT)

   The [6]Zoom meeting ID is 831 9996 6275; the passcode is 707664.

   See the [7]meeting logistics page for more details.

   Note: The QT4CG meeting is scheduled on UK/European civil time. The
   United States switched to daylight saving time on 9 March 2025, so the
   meeting of 25 March will be one hour later there (12:00 EDT, 09:00 PDT)
   until the UK/Europe also switches (on 30 March 2025).

   This meeting is planned for 25 March 2025. The following meeting is

   Note: The QT4CG meeting is scheduled on UK/European civil time. The
   United States switched to daylight saving time on 9 March 2025 and the

   will be back to the "usual" time in North America (no fooling!).
