[Nexus] NXDL technical meetings: poll for meeting on NX_class

[Wout De Nolf]

Hi folks,

New poll for an NXDL technical meeting:

Topic: NX_class which is not really an attribute like the others 
(https://github.com/nexusformat/definitions/issues/1687)

Poll: #NXDL > Declare attributes of all fields and groups @ 💬 [1]

Cheers,
Wout De Nolf
