Hello group,

GBIF Communications,

I’d like to share good news that after many “power users” completed the survey just before the deadline, were are getting more replies after the news was shared through the GBIF communication channels, thanks Kyle, Daniel and Tim!

The news http://www.gbif.org/newsroom/news/invasive-alien-species-surveys-open is currently a featured one at GBIF.org.

The survey will be closed in 24 days.

Thanks,
