As observed by Til, the one "issue" that arose on the recusal was addressed on the public Conference Dev mailing list. Actually, the only thing that is not open is the origin of the phrase used in Maria's first email today: "<span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><font color="#741b47">there has been some concerns raised.</font>" Where are these "concerns" coming from? When were they raised? Are they limited to the "recusal issue" from Venka? If not, what are the additional concerns?</span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Thanks in advance for confirming what the "concerns" may be.</span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">And again, congratulations to the Calgary team.</span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">MT</span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></span></div></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Tue, Dec 18, 2018 at 7:15 AM Msilikale Msilanga <<a href="mailto:msilikalemsilanga@gmail.com">msilikalemsilanga@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">Congratulations to the Calgary team<div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Msilikale<br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On 13 Dec 2018, at 4:31 PM, Till Adams <<a href="mailto:till.adams@fossgis.de" target="_blank">till.adams@fossgis.de</a>> wrote:</div><br class="gmail-m_-9175844116940304407Apple-interchange-newline"><div>
