<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I am feeling uncomfortable. Why? Because you,
Adrian, as VITTA President, have publically castigated a list member, Roland. It
would perhaps have been more appropriate for you to contact Roland off-list to
discuss his concerns. Then you could both have gone on-list with a
discussion.</FONT></DIV>

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Mark,
as always, thanks for providing the info for those who want to make a
comparison of the old study versus the new. I would like to add that
simply reading this summary is not really the way to come to grips with the
study. Mark will have a good grasp of what is in the study and he has
done this by reading it from cover to cover which I strongly encourage all
of you to do. A summary is great but does not substitute for a full
reading and in order to implement the study you it is vital that we all come
to terms with the key knowledge and key skills.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Roland,
I think your tone is out of order. As I member of the writing team for
the study, I am insulted that you feel we dont have an idea of what cloud
computing is and you imply that we didnt do our research which is far
from the truth. Perhaps you should have a good read of the study design
before making criticisms of this nature and then we can have an informed
discussion rather than one that appears to be based on
assumptions.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
