Two questions:

1. Why is it that you can't seem to figure out how to post in the

2. 'Joerg'/Jörg Joerg Schilling <Joerg.Schilling at fokus.fraunhofer.de>
posted on this list previously

so apparently he's subscribed to the list. Any reason why you need to do
a 'man-in-the-middle' here?

Recommend that you go back to the original thread and comment there.
