May I respectfully suggest that we are getting nowhere on this.   We need to find a way forward or we will keep going around and around

 

Many in the subgroup do not support sending out Question 4.  We have articulated reasons for that on several occasions.  I have considered carefully the arguments of those who do support sending out Question 4 and after thinking about it carefully, I cannot find a basis for agreeing to send out the question.  My thoughts are captured by David McC’s post on why this is a rabbit hole I oppose starting down.

 

Others in the group feel strongly that question 4 should go out.  Some feel so strongly that they are of the view that it is all or nothing.  While I don’t agree with them and while I certainly don’t agree with the idea that saying “all or nothing” is respectful of other people, I am not going to try any longer to change their minds.

 

If all or nothing is the only choice available, I think the way forward is clear – let’s do nothing and shelve the idea of a questionnaire altogether.  If anyone has concrete data to add (as Faranzeh did) they can do so as and when they wish.

Dear All

With all due respect, I strongly oppose detaching questions 1-3 from Q 4.

Either ALL 4Qs or nothing.

Pls collaborate

This is counterproductive that from the very begining few people oppose to Q4

Regards

Kavouss

I support all the revisions to 1-3 and to the preamble that were proposed and gained support on the recent call. Essentially I support sending out the text Greg sent in his Jan 7 email unmodified.

 

If we conclude that a questionnaire must go out then I support questions 1-3 as widely supported in the survey we did  – with no question 4.

 

MM: I agree with David here, although I would be happy if we simply detach Q4, work on it some more until it is acceptable, and send it out later.

I note that all the discussion and disagreement about what to do next comes from Q4. Once again, it is holding us up. Let’s cut the Gordian knot and detach the 1-3 from it, please, and move on.
