I am aware of this.  So, I could go on answering your perfectly valid questions
based on my own opinion, which may or may not have any relevance to what FESCo
decides.  We could rinse and repeat all of that for whatever FESCo member chose
to do so.  We could further have more questions on this list directed at FESCo
and expecting individual replies to them based on official statements from
a _committee_.

Or instead, we could state that this questions are noted, valued, and important
and let FESCo discuss them as a _committee_ during it's designated _meeting_
it has weekly to discuss such issues.  That would seem to be more prudent than
just having a bunch of people reply with "I don't speak for FESCo but...".

Toshio, I realize that your questions were asked before FESCo originally voted
on the proposal.  The fact that they weren't answered by the committee when
they seem entirely relevant would appear to be a mistake on FESCo's part.  Now
that the issue has been raised again for discussion, perhaps we can wait for
the meeting tomorrow and see what comes of it.
