- at 5:30pm in London. Schedule details on how to join by Zoom registration: https://digit-psb.github.io/DIGIT-Works/
- 14:02:45 [norm]
- And also: The event starts at noon EDT (or 5pm London). The first two hours could be of interest as some other projects also applied ixml in the following hour from my Digit 210 class, just not so extensively as that first one.
