  • Elliot Williams has a new release for the dashboard which will probably occur the same time as the OpenMRS.org updates
  • OpenMRS ID: Spring 2012
  • Individuals with openmrs.org emails were not able to re-set their password, so we changed this
  • Burke: When will this occur?
  • Michael: We'll launch it when we update the changes for the openmrs.org site, perhaps after the site 
  • Mailing lists: Spring 2012
  • We're moving from the listserv platform to Google Groups platform. You don't need a Google account to do this
