On the substance (and partly in response to SM) I know that participants

can participate in the work, know what is being decided, and make his

Thanks for the above. I would not describe the decision as
"shocking" as it would be an exaggeration. In my opinion, there are
difficult questions ahead. The text which you quoted is one example.
