[samigo-team] future of the samigo working group--do we need separate meetings?

[Neal Caidin]

Hi Keli,

Sounds good. So this will be July 1, @ 2pm Eastern?

Just before July 4th so we better get the word out quickly before 
everyone plans their July 4th vacations (in the U.S.A). ;-)

Cheers,
Neal
