I propose that IGC goes ahead and drafts and sends very soon a
first letter simply from IGC. This could IMO be a relatively

On the other hand, it is even harder for the IGC to agree on a
letter than it is for Best Bits, since the IGC requires
consensus. And there are enough IGC members saying "no" to the
letter already that I wonder whether consensus will be possible...<br>

Still it is good to hear views on this issue....<br>
