[margolisl at gmail.com]

[[-- Translated text (en -> es) --]]

Hola,

 En nombre de los miembros de LAC-ALAC - Dr. Carlos Dionisio Aguirre, Sr. Marcelo
 Rodríguez y yo, reenviamos este correo electrónico de fecha 27 de junio, en el que nos
 no recibi ninguna respuesta ni comentarios.

 No tenemos una fecha límite, pero necesitamos y merecemos una respuesta.

 Quien tiene la obligación y responsabilidad de responder debe hacerlo.

 ¡Gracias!

 Saludos cordiales,

 Laura Margólis
