Hi Zain, you are welcome to join the drive. Just press the green I’m in button on the front page, where Joe announced the drive.
@Joe: I assume this drive will not happen tomorrow (21.01), am I right? Keen to learn more details.
drive details will be updated at least one week in advance 🙂
Where is the meeting place or point, have not seen any discussion on coordinates. Is this also for select members who will be contacted individually.
