@webcommsat mentioned that during last week’s devchat, Josepha shared the difficulties some contributors are having at this time and encouraged everyone to reach out to our friends.
Thanks to those who have been sharing the problems and impact of Covid with Abha and other members of the projects group in marketing, and we continue to be here for you.
