Dear Alissa
Dear Patrik
Dear All Thank you very much to Alissa and Patrik for their clear position.
As for overlapping Vacation,we need to recognize that the entire community
carefully watching our reaction .
We have an established time line which MUST BE MET.
Each of us SHALL contribute and make sacrifice.
Perhaps there would be no or very few days of Vacation
I am attending several calls per day for various CCWG Working Groups and
sub working groups.
I have missed one or two but continue to actively attend.
We have an obligation to discharge as we have accepted to do so.
I sincerely encourage every body to adjust his or her personal program to
Transition activities .
We are  AN international custodian PUBLIC SEFRVANT
Regards
Kavouss
