Cool

Let us update the agenda to make more room then.

Could you please prepare a slide or 2 illustrating what the problem is?

Also I'd like to provide examples at the call. If you have some that illustrate 
your issues please send them on the lists so I can provide the 6lorh form to 
compare.

Thanks a bunch Simon!
