Hi Walid

<div class="">So before we post the privacy protected version to the website, do you want to craft an short email notification highlighting the main take-aways and recommendations for possible action, to see if these generate some uptake?</div>

Dear MAT members,<br class="">
<br class="">
I have removed the public link I sent earlier and have instead put a<br class="">
PDF file for offline viewing and also removed the answers to the first<br class="">
and second questions (name and email) for privacy reasons.<br class="">
<br class="">
Find the PDF file here:<br class="">
