RE: [council] Re: A question to the candidate

Dakar is fine, as long as we do not settle for a "we'll just agree to
disagree" conclusion.


I will not be on hand, so just imagine I am there to keep poking at this
matter.


Cheers,

 Thanks John. I am unsure whether you expect an answer by email or would
prefer that we "stockpile" this question for the "Q&A with candidate"
session that we have planned in Dakar?
 
 I would think that the second option is better, as it means everyone
can join the discussion as and when they wish.
 
 Also, as I am leaving for Dakar tomorrow and will probably be out of
email range for a few days, if anyone else has any questions that would
mean I could address them all at the same time, which might work better.
 
 Would you be OK with this?
 
 Stéphane
