Hi all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It is not desirable to delay a reply to this email, but I don't know who is supposed to take a decision on this. I request your two cents on this collaboration with GWECS they are proposing; after we reach a consensus, we can give a reply to them. As of
 now, I will send them an email of acknowledgment and let them know that we will get back to them as soon as possible. <br>
<br>
I suggest that we meet with them if possible. </div>
