<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If the number of volunteers does'n reach 25, I
don't think it would be good to give up and let the GAID secretariat to do the
selection. I think even if we have twice the number of the nom com members, we
have to go ahead and select randomly 5 among 10. But under 10, I agree with you
that we have to let the GAID secretariat do it.</FONT></DIV>
