<div>Dear Malcolm</div>
<div>No offence taken, you are a gentleman :-)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On the substance, my only aim was to avoid again polarizing views and start all over again from scratch...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> I was personally happy to have found some agreement or deal within the CCWG, in which everyone made some concession.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I believe that Thanksgiving deal is the best this CCWG can offer as something everybody can live with. That is why I am very reluctant to again repeat the process and go through a duplication of last year's discussions.</div>

<div>Best</div>

Dear Kavouss and Rafael,<br>
<br>
When I mentioned correcting a mistake, I was referring to a collective<br>
mistake by the CCWG, for which I share my part of the responsibility; I<br>
did not mean to accuse Raphael. If you understood any lack of courtesy<br>
by my comment, please accept my apology.<br>
<br>
Kind Regards,<br>
<br>
Malcolm.<br>
