I am disappointed that the VLHC wording seems to have been weakened yet again. It is my understanding that the executive summary is supposed to reflect the conclusions of the working group reports. I felt that the previous version did but this one does not. The previous version was extensively discussed during the phone meeting, and seemed to have unanimous support. I request that the previous wording be reinstated. Markus On Saturday, August 24, 2013, Ashutosh Kotwal wrote: > On Aug 24, 2013, at 6:15 PM, "Graham W.
