Hello Fae,
thank you very much for pointing this out. Yes, I think you indeed hit the nail. We discussed this problem on our meeting and Sue provided some plans on how to work on this problem. I am normally reluctant to comment what the staff is doing or what they are planning to do, because this often can be seen as an intervening of the staff activity. But I think it is ok for me to spoil this a bit now: So Sue suggests a two step approach. In the first step we will only collect reader reactions on images, to see if there is a problem at all, how big is the problem, and where are the problems. And on a second step, when we have those data and can work out an understanding of it, then we can go on to work out dedicated solutions for the problems, as I said in my letter, together with the community.
Greetings Ting

Hi Ting,
Thanks for explaining the position of the board in your own words. I appreciate the board is listening. I am concerned that you state that the board is acting from "belief", I recommend you consider how this can move to proposing a strategy based on facts and non-controversial analysis.
I suspect that any proposal for change will be strongly resisted and continue to divide our community until well understood and well communicated facts underpin the board's resolution rather than personal belief.
Cheers, Fae
