Maybe we should try for regular monthly meetings on the same date and time each month? At least we would know there is an EC mtg on a certain date and time on a regular basis and we can plan for that and build it in to our schedule. This is not meant to be a criticism, only a plea for organization so we can know what is going on and can plan to participate accordingly. <div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thanks,</div><div class="">Robin</div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Aug 3, 2020, at 1:18 PM, Maryam Bakoshi via NCSG-EC <<a href="mailto:ncsg-ec@lists.ncsg.is" class="">ncsg-ec@lists.ncsg.is</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1;
