[Internal-cg] Fwd: Information requested

Kavouss,

Patrik and I just pointed out that before asking formal questions the
ICG needs to take a decision to do so. It is not sufficient for one
member to raise a question.

Informally I have pointed out that the information you seek is already
available, maybe not in the form you request but it is there.

I have also stated my opinion that we will gain nothing by asking
general questions because the information is already there and the
answers will be no different than what is already there. If we want to
learn more, we have to ask specific questions.

Please be assured that I have no aggressive intentions at all. My
intention is to remind us of our agreed procedure and to help us to gain
the information we need.

If there is any deprivation involved here, I do not see it. ;-)

Daniel
