This poll is a bit too detailed and online polls hardly ever work. I'd say
we talk to Ligad interactively and see what is the best solution we can
come up with. We'll explain the situation, explain what we want and see
what they make of it.
Ira, I'd like to have the phone number of this Ligad contact person. In
fact, I'll try to contact him myself.
Regards,
Shlomi Fish
