Status are also ok for me.
Article 12.3 The other half of total number of votes.... etc.
will cause big problems
in the future.These kind way putting each other different
position is not model of
new modern sport organisation its a model of old fashioned
organisations and shows for Finnish
that some countries wants to have so much power that they can
control rules, tour and everything
else.It also gives possible to make rules inside
system with serves only middle europe countries and
some other very big countries.
Racketlon will need democraty not powerfull inviduals or
countries!
I hope wise and good meetings in Wienna.

President of Finnish Racketlon Federation

Dear Country Representatives,
