Yes, all who we were in Berlin are aware of the French scenario.

Didn't know, I actually didn't read the PDF -which is also in french, something that difficults my understanding (I learned French in High School and I have some reading level, but not so much to fully understand complex texts-, just linked it.

It's understandable.

Wouldn't certainly be an agreeable situation for us to be in the same situation as you actually are, indeed. Hope such problems can be solved soon :) By the way, I finally was able to contact our IT Group -as our PRs didn't make the step-, and they've finally changed French URL on our website. Please check it.

Yes, we have to be aware of all EU movements, to be able to react on time -as, of course, as a PPI whole, which would give us a higher status-. Regards
