[Mpi-forum] adapting to the COVID-19 situation

[Wesley Bland]

Hey Jeff,

I’ve been talking about this with Martin and Bill Gropp to try to come up with a couple of options. We’re still working on figuring some details of what we can do so we can present them for the forum soon.

Since we don’t meet again in person until June, I think we have some time to make the final decision, but it’s probably reasonable to say that people shouldn’t buy plane tickets.

Thanks,
Wes
