Okay Sebastian.

Thank you for this comment.

Your feedback and Michael one show me that I was incorrect. The issue is 
not that chapters can not do such things, but rather that discussion do 
not take place at the right location. Because that's the place I 
discussed the issue was the internal mailing list and it did not foster 
such a reaction ;-)

I note the information for later :-)
