First, thank you for these answers. They provide further information I
was initially looking for to get a better understanding of the
situation. I was simply wondering if we couldn't provide such
information right away, but maybe you are right with that it is hardly
forseeable and, thus, managable. It is probably easiest to ask the
involved people directly next time. And I am all with you, I sincerely
hope there will be no next time!
