19 to 25 there will be a content freeze, and
Quorum will not be available.

the same and what’s changing?
Staying the
same
- Access to
your existing account and group spaces.

documents in the group(s) you’re in.

group activity (posts/comments). Note, the last 12 months will
be retained; older activity will not be migrated.

status. If you have clicked on the “subscribe to updates” button in
one or more group(s), you will remain subscribed.
Changing
- The Quorum
URL will change to a new web address.
