Hello Pat,

I am sorry if I left the impression, that I somehow would interfere with 
decisions which aren't my responsibility This was not my goal, and I 
appologize for this now and here formally.

However, I have stated, that I _suggest_ possible solutions to the 
responsible persons. I quote myself here:

> This will be/was suggested to the responsible PPI Board members, and 
> the remote delegates, and we will see if this gets accepted.

Again, I am sorry if I left a wrong impression. Of course all scenarios 
I draw only will be suggestions. I am not the one to decide. I simply 
wanted to state technical possibilites.

Noone is questioning your position.

I am extremly sorry, that I haven't stated more clear that I only 
_suggest_ possible solutions.

Even in my last mail I stated:

The term I used is "should" and "detail to my concept" - I did not say 
it will be done so.

A concept is a possible plan. Not a ready solution.

Again I apologize. I will not present any suggestions in public and 
leave it of course to you to decide what details you want to discuss in 
public.

Best regards

Wolfgang
