Hi,
I feel that there is a clarification missing here:

Well, please allow me to explain how it was meant: We were speaking
about better coordination, and we discussed what we want to avoid. It
was only meant as an example what didn't work out as nice as we all (and
I guess also you :) wanted.
I intend to put the minutes directly on the website (though not now),
and perhaps I'll be able to put it in better words than.
Cheers,
Andi
