I am indicating that questions about development plans and intentions fall 
outside the scope of questions for Board candidates as regards their 
suitability for election, as the role of directors[1] does not include 
development tasks. I'm inviting you to note that observation and save your 
valid but out-of-scope question for later. I am not censoring you at this point 
as I hope you will choose to desist voluntarily.

Thanks

S.
