Hello Arno, Many thanks for your hard work. Since I have been through this several times, I can second Arno's statements about the amount of work and the care one must take to ensure an accurate tally. I *very* much appreciate you having done this -- thanks.
Thanks also to everyone who voted -- I'm very pleased with the much larger number of you than previous years who did vote. As Arno says, now we must find the developers, but that said, I am confident that we will make very significant progress toward implementation of these projects.
