Let?s just hope that Code isn?t the Law. Thanks for forwarding my
nomination, Max. I am not sure whether it is necessary for nominations
to be accepted and/or seconded by someone else, but I would like
support the nomination of Graciela Selaimen, Rafik Damak and yourself
as well.

--------------------------------------------------

Max: Could you forward this to the list? Sorry to bother you with that
but maybe the problem we are having is that I may be registered at the
list with my caf at fgv.br email rather than with the usual
caffsouza at gmail.com. It is strange because I recall posting on the
list with my gmail before without having any trouble. Are you the one
responsible for those registrations or do you know if there is a way
for us to set up this? Time to pack up things and head to the airport.
See you in Sharm!

Best,
Carlos
