Dear Greg,

Dear Distinguished colleagues in Jurisdiction Sub-Group

During the last call, unfortunately and unintendedly I was, to some extent,
emotional and went beyond what usually I do.

In this family of CCWG, there have been circumstances in which hard
discussion and heated  disputes occurred but  we should be bear in mind
that we must  always maintain  necessary degree of tolerance and patience
at these circumstances and respect each other irrespective of the majority
or minority spectrum.

We are all human being and may unintendedly and momentarily loose our cold
blood.

I have formally admired the hard work of Greg in the last f2f meeting in
Johannesburg and I continue to admire him and appreciate his valuable
efforts.

The issue in his hand is delicate, sensitive and complex. If there is not
sufficient progress it is merely because of that and if there are other
reasons for speed of progress the whole group in a collegial and collective
manner should share the responsibilities and burden and not Greg

I have sent a short message to my dear Friend Greg and expressed my sincere
regret if my emotional intervention has grieved him and I am sure he has
not taken it seriously.

I informed him,  that, as usual, I do my best to further collaborate  with
him and with the group  with a view to find out whether there are ways and
means to  for the resolution  the problems that we are facing.

I wish all of you, in particular. My dear friend Greg, a very nice week-end
