| [stem-dev] Agenda for the STEM Community Call this Thursday, August 9 |
STEM Users All, Our STEM call this month will be at 9 am Pacific time. As always, we welcome you to join us; if you’d like to, email me at judyvdouglas@xxxxxxxxxxx for call in instructions. You’ll note that the agenda is lengthier than usual because it includes details on next steps toward the release of STEM Version 4.0.0—steps made possible by the successful hard work done by Ahmad Swaid. During the call, Jamie, Stefan and Ahmad will flesh out what’s suggested in the agenda below.
