First of all, it is a public list. On the other hand, not being a candidate disqualifies me from asking questions? El 2020-09-04 10:47, Simon Phipps escribió: I was not aware you were a candidate, Daniel. Did I miss your nomination? S. On Fri, Sep 4, 2020 at 2:29 PM Daniel Armando

Did you mean that Daniel has no rights to speak out his question?  If so, In what rules say only candidates can reply questions to MC candidates? If no, then why did you ask such a question? F Simon Phipps 於 2020/9/4 下午9:47 寫道: > I was not aware you were a candidate, Daniel. Did I miss your

Maybe, but you still don't answer my question.  In what rules forbid Daniel to do this? BTW, If I would reply Michael's question mail I would be negative too, because I don't like his way to ask such questions, just like I don't like the way you ask Daniel either. F. Simon Phipps 於 2020/9/4
