Dear Rudi and all,
if I understand the forwarded polemic right, it was not written by JFC -
commented only -- but by Danny Younger (to whom I responded yesterday

Furthermore, I haven’t received and seen this mailing on the ALAC-list before?
Best,
Wolf

Thanks, Danny, for this reminder. But I am overloaded with work and have to
follow some professional deadlines until the end of this month; therefore I can
just do the absolute necessary.
Sorry and regards,
Wolf
