That's why I started this thread: I wanted to find out if I am part of a minority. Which seems to be true. Anyway, I want to thank everybody who gave their views and opinions on this topic and welcome all upcoming reactions to this thread. I hope everybody understands I didn't want to start a revolution, just collect opinions and maybe push ESUG towards early August/July. Seems my chances are small ;-) Joachim
