Dear Colleagues,
The Symbiota2 project team invites you to attend the sixth open session on the Symbiota2 project. Each session is independent of the previous ones. They are minimally structured to encourage feedback and interaction, but each will start with an overview of recent progress. Notice the change in terminology: "webinar" suggests a more structured approach than is intended so please, if you have ideas questions, suggestions, or comments, relating to Symbiota2, bring them up. Someone attending might have some useful suggestions.
This Wednesday will start with an overview of progress directly related to the project before openin gup the session to questions.
