Hi guys, Just wanted to give you an update about the Iceberg Summit.
I'm working on the document with a more concrete and complete proposal. The purpose is to review and discuss the proposal during the first meeting. I will be on vacation for two weeks but I will work on this during break time. As soon as I have the first proposal completed, I will send an invite to all interested parties. Thanks !
