[nesfa-reading-group] which version?

Fri Jan 5 18:11:50 EST 2024

I just logged into the NESFA Zoom server and started a session.

It claims that this is the connection URL:

https://us06web.zoom.us/j/6176252311?pwd=pE7v5I2A5wrybOgAcbgnW5agbQ6BuW.1

Can someone test that?  If it works, then that's what we'll use for the
meeting.
