[Starlingx-discuss] [config][distcloud][flock services] Areas to improve team communication and visibility

[Ildiko Vancsa]

Hi Dariush,

Thank you for the quick response.

Please let me know when the teams identified their meeting slot preferences to make sure there is no collision to use the Zoom account.

Let me know if I can help with anything else.

Thanks,
Ildikó
