Dear Paal and all,
While I agree with Paal, I point out one important additional element.
The need to have good stoves available for the end users.
The GACC is involved in many aspects of stoves, but one in particular is
the stimulation of the supply of the stoves. Stoves PLURAL and of
numerous types. Which stoves, and where, and by whom are part of the
basics that GACC is facilitating while not doing nor dictating. Not an
easy task.
So, linking Paal's comments and the GACC, should and can more attention
to the end users be given by the GACC? And if so, then how, when, etc.

Dear Stovers and GACC
The discussion on the list must be crucial for GACC, though the end
user for the program naturally dos not participate in the
discussion.The academic part of the discussion is really informative
and important for us stove designers but probably not that much for
the end user. I feel there is too much focus on stoves on the list and
to little focus on the end user, the cook and the fuel. What are the
priorities of the end user?
1.Price of stoves
2.Price of fuel
3.Economy
4.Jobs
5.Waste as fuel
6.Soot, tar on the pot and smoke
7.Practical use of stoves and fuel
8.Design.
9.Boiling beans.
10.Minutes to boil 5 liter of water and MJ
11.Health
12.Environment
13.Biochar
It could be useful for all of us and especially for GACC, which has a
unique possibility with this program to really change the household
energy and health situation for the low income population in the world
and in addition open for utilization of combustible waste and income
generating activities.
