As announced before, we would like to propose a 2 hours online meeting in June. To cover the large geographic range of the group, the best times seem to be 13:00 to 15:00 Paris time, which corresponds to 6:00 to 8:00 in the US west coast (Illinois) and 20:00 to 22:00 in Japan. To allow full discussion during such a short meeting, we propose that a select few pre-recorded talks be made available via Youtube or Slack for viewing at your convenience beforehand. The meeting will then mainly consist of discussion of the talks. Please respond rapidly to this Doodle so that a date can be fixed : https://doodle.com/poll/n8ix8dmwzabpn2gi?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link We propose the following scedule, assuming that everybody has watched the pre-recorded talks before the meeting : 15 minutes of introductions and free exchange 75 minutes discussion of 5 presentations : * 3 minutes flash presentation of the talk * 12 minutes discussion 30 minutes of discussion about networking and improving activities, with a focus on the Oaxaca and Taiwan meetings total = 2 hours We will use an internet space (yet to me defined, Slack or Mattermost), to also pre-record questions, and use as an online forum to continue discussions after the meeting. We have already had several proposals for talks and we will be contacting these members shortly for for details. We will have probably to make a choice. But if any more members would like to propose talks (this means recording them at least a week before the meeting date), send me an email (oliver.brendel(a)inrae.fr) If this meeting format is successful, we could propose it more regularly and thereby increase the general activity of the working group and allow more people to present their results. best regards Oliver Brendel, Chuck Cannon, Keiko Kitamura -- ATTENTION NEW EMAIL ADDRESS oliver.brendel(a)inrae.fr _________________________________________________________ Oliver Brendel UMR SILVA Equipe PHARE Centre INRAE Grand Est - Nancy F-54280 Champenoux France TEL 0033 (0) 383 /394100 FAX /394022 _______________________________________________ IUFRO Mailing List To post a message to all list members, send email to: wp20805(a)lists.iufro.org List info and Archive: https://www.iufro.org/science/iufro-mailing-lists/list-management/
