Agree with Roberto. And with an earlier message by Rudi on the substance.

What happens with this discussion and lack of decision, is that, it 
seems the euralo will be the only organization not represented in San 
Juan. And that will make a case that the other ralos are working, 
except the North/West one, where there's a particular design to stop 
solutions, and introduce new problems. I wonder why is that.
