Well, I'm curious as to how long this matter is going to drag on. Sha apprised us of this issue on 1/5, starting this thread. Opinions came pretty fast representing a variety of viewpoints. On 1/6 at post #38, I asked sha if we would be informed on the matter's final disposition. At post #39 also on 1/6, sha indicated that of course we would be although he didn't know when that would be. He then indicated he had to get about planning January's shoots.
Well we are now at 85 posts on 9 pages of this thread. And it is 1/21. So I don't think it is illogical to assume that this matter should be resolved in the very near future. It's not as if we are deciding the fate of the world at the United Nations. It will be interesting to see when a decision is reached and communicated to us.
