| Jul 5 at 15:41 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | Good point about the intransitive use. I didn't see that in the first answer, and failed to scroll down to this until I'd already pointed it out in a comment. Of copurse, it's only a contextual assumption that the meeting was convened by "flu experts". It's quite possible to suppose that government leaders convened the meeting, and told their flu experts to attend. | |

| Jul 5 at 14:55 | comment | added | Seowjooheng Singapore | Thanks, @Andy Bonner. You’re right. The experts convened is valid. | |

| Jul 5 at 14:46 | comment | added | Andy Bonner | Does it? I don't see that to be true. While I think "meeting" is the more likely referent, I don't think that "experts" is ineligible, just that context and common usage makes "meeting" more likely. (Plus, there's no impact to the meaning.) | |
