Check my response to his email.

It seems you're okay with a separate thread, when both threads
could be working concurrently, and Christian wants
a single thread doing all this. You should probably address
this in a follow-up to his email, so this can be hashed out.

I've addressed this in my response to his email, check it out.

So, if you're in favour of a separate thread working concurrently,
please follow up to his email, so this can be hashed out.

Thanks and Regards,
