Re: [Emo-dir] WG Chairs materials review - and proposal

[Greg Wood <[e-mail]>]

Hi,

It’s been gently pointed out to me that we don’t have a meeting tomorrow scheduled. (I believe Alexa is starting a Doodle poll shortly to find a time.)

In the meantime, any thoughts by email on the proposal (or other/better ideas!) about how to engage the community with emodir would be great.

Asking for volunteers to provide input/guidance for improving/developing WG Chair resources would be helpful. Some of the ideas that come out of that group might be things the Secretariat and/or LLC staff execute on, or there may be some things that volunteers take on. (On this latter point, having a discussion about how the WG Chairs wiki will be maintained going forward would be good).
