==== Major changes in the this version. ====
 
*'''Meeting Information.''' The Meeting Information table was removed and replaced with a link to the Events page in NENA Workspace with links to all scheduled meetings. Members can select the meeting where they can see the meeting details, cancel their RSVP, and indicate that they have attended the event. This process eliminates the duplication of work for group leaders to prepare the information in NENA Workspace and enter the same information again in the ADM-008 Agenda. It also transfers the official attendance record-keeping from the meeting note-taker to the attendee.
*'''Attendance Table.''' The Attendance Table has been removed. Since the official attendance records are maintained in NENA Workspace, and the official group roster is maintained there, managing the attendance table in the Agenda and Notes was considered to be an unnecessary duplication of work. The form includes the capture of Zoom attendance reports. This is important as a backup to the attendance in NENA Workspace. It is also required to capture the attendance of any person who is not on the group's NWS roster.
*'''Opening Questions & Statements.''' The '''Opening Questions & Statements''' now include guidance about attendance processes, required changes to the IPR statement, and suggestions about meeting etiquette.
*'''Tasks tables removed from Agenda Items.''' The "Action Items" feature of NENA Workspace will be used instead of tasks.
*'''First Actions.''' The First Actions agenda item section was added to include time-sensitive topics that may otherwise have been placed in unfinished or new business but need to addressed before other agenda items that might take up the rest of the meeting.
*'''In-Meeting Chat notes.''' Sometimes, the Zoom In-Meeting Chat is used to gather important information including references, contributions, and polls. Those important meeting details can now be captured in the form.
*'''Updated IPR and Antitrust Advisory statement.''' The NENA IPR statement has been updated to reflect the revised NENA IPR and Antitrust Policy.
*'''Added NENA Ethics & Code of Conduct Policy.''' The Meeting Etiquette section now includes a statement regarding adherence to NENA's Code of Conduct during the meeting. A NENA Ethics & Code of Conduct Policy has been added to the end of the form.
