Hi Mark,
Thanks for the generous offer. :-) We're not paying for zoom,
however I'm definitely up for doing an experiment during our spdx-tech
meeting tomorrow, and if it works for the regular attendees, changing to a
system with better security.
Can you send me the details for the account to use, and we'll do an
experiment during the tech call, and feedback to the wider group.
Thanks again!
Kate
