Below are a few opinions of the AETF BD and RC members:

Master Donato Nardizzi (England) - AETF Board od Directors member

"I was impressed with the set up of the AETF Headquarters in Lublin. The meeting was constructive and the hospitality in Poland was excellent".

Master Brendan O' Toole (Ireland) - AETF Board od Directors member

I thought the meeting was conducted in a very organized and professional manor. I felt that all the items on the agenda were given plenty of time and discussed enthusiastically by the whole board. It was a big advantage holding the meeting in the headquarters with all the services and documentation ready to hand.

Master Frank Frank Vanberghen (Belgium) - AETF Board od Directors member

"The meeting was professionally organized. For myself in total I had 20 hours of meeting during the weekend. Perhaps there should be a limit of time to discuss about some points. Satisfied to have the possibility to discuss about all important points, as the Revisory Commission. The AETF HQ and meeting room fully professional and practical equipped. A competent crew. Internet disposal, even wireless in the hotel. Congratulations!"

Information about the particular decisions of the Board will be given in a separate news item.
