Dear Augusto
Can I thank you and all in TC 6 who have contributed for their thoughts.
It is a very complicated picture to try to unravel. I am glad that Leon and Basie are also participating. No doubt we will be undating you all in due course as the picture clarifies.
Good wishes
Roger

Dear Roger,
In our last meeting in Budapest we had been working on the refinement of the IFIP conditions for the new bid. We sent our contributions to Leon Strous, who included them in the final document, which has already reached you last week.
Your mail from May 21st with the news that IFIP and Springer are in the same company now, reached us after the TC6 meeting. This is definitely new information which needs to be considered. I circulated the mail within TC6. I have got a few comments and suggestions from TC6 members on your mail. I decided that instead of trying to reach by e-mail a consensual message to send to you, as the time urges, I will forward in separate mails the most relevant messages that I have received from TC6 members. I really hope that they can help us in reaching the best decision. Please notice that all of them insist that electronic publication is also mandatory.
Best regards
Augusto
