[Mpi-forum] [EXTERNAL] Re: Dates for March Meeting

[Schulz, Martin]

Seems like this is the best solution, since the move is not convenient or not favored by most people who have spoken up and we have declared those dates as fixed. I'll keep this in mind and will schedule WG time for RMA on Monday and Tuesday morning. Hopefully at least a few WG members can stick around to represent the group in the remaining forum time.
