Hi all,
I can't believe it.
But in a message of today at the sports-news section of the "Financial Times Germany" I read in an interview with the chairman of the Germann Sailing Federation, Rolf Baehr, that there is a discussion to reduce the number of sailing disciplines at the Olympic games in future.
Baehr says: Either the Laser Standard (open class single-handed men) or the Finn Dinghy (single-handed men) will be "striked of the roll" of the Olympic disciplines, but he supports, that the women singlehanded sailing discipline Laser Radial is not involved in that discussion inside of the IOC.
Here is the full report, but only in German Language (Sorry, I can't find a source of that in English):

What can we do?
Ignore such infiormations? Continue the business as usual?
A big poll here at TLF?
Take the pencil and write long letters to Jaques Rogge (chairman of the IOC), support the work of our class heads, spend money to the heads of the IOC (the last is a joke) etc.?
What is the information the ILCA wants to give us?
Cheers
