We will need your email address to send you the conference call details. We will try to use Google Meets for this Meet-up, simply because I have a subscription with Google, but not with any of the other providers, such as Zoom. Google Chrome seems to work best with Meet, or the dedicated Google Meet app for your mobile devices/tablets. This online meeting is limited to 150 participants.
