I have no objection whatever if Defkalion wants to keep the results strictly secret. However, they announced that they would reveal independent evaluations in January. They never did. *That* is bad form. That is not how to run a business. In a business, when you announce that you will do this or that, then later you find you cannot follow through, you should explain why. You should issue a statement: "we regret that we were unable to do it because . . . blah blah" I am very pleased they intend to participate in ICCF17. If they are forced to cancel, I will be disappointed. But that is the way things go in R&D. I would not blame them or assume they up to no good because a schedule slips. HOWEVER, once again, if that happens I think they should issue a statement explaining why they could not go and expressing regret. It is unprofessional to keep quiet and act as if nothing happened. It invites suspicion. - Jed
