What are the updates on percona webinars?

I’ve subscribed to Percona newsletter, but this year I’ve never received any email about MongoDB 4.0.6-3 related webinar. I’m working on the project (based in Louisiana State University and Agricultural & Mechanical College) and need to install the Windows version (previously I tried to install the Linux version of MongoDB, but it failed). The I found this guide on the Medium website and it seems to be working fine.

Hi Terry, thanks for your comments on the webinars. I’ll pass your feedback to the person who deals with our webinar programme. Percona Server for MongoDB is Linux only so I guess you are looking at the MongoDB Community software there.
