If you dont see the benefit in having this already then it's no point in 
explaining it because you would not understand or have already made up 
your mind how you see this.

That highly depends how you look at this and how we ( as an project ) 
decide to proceed forward for the next 5 - 10 years.

That's depended on FESCO as has been proven as well as how we proceed 
further as a project.

They can if they want to as is with anything, nobody is forcing anything 
upon anybody here nor am I asking or expecting anyone to do any 
additional work here.

I suggest next time you guys go witch hunting you actually bother to 
read the SIG description which should have answer at least some question 
that was being asked here and I suggest as I have suggested before that 
you take this discussion to the relevant mailing list if you want to 
discuss this further.
