@andremillet found this conference! Great stuff! This is going to work out well (should we get accepted) because we will have finished up with WONCA SAR by the time of this conference. I’ll be curious to see what roadmap development milestones have been met at that time.

We’ll need to work up another topic that pertains to our innovative development work that is relevant to this conference theme. I will set an event in Google to remind us in mid-October to start working on the new abstract!
