I hope that the agreement will be a success too. It is concerning to me that Sweden didn't get the chance to see the proposal :(
Regarding the financial point, my reading was this.
The reduction amount is calculated as: 50% of the income from member nations fees + 50% of the income from 'managing bonus tournaments' + 20% of money from other sponsors or other sources of income.

What would the companies get out of this deal no matter if it's all fair and square (which I prefer to assume)?

Regarding Swedens awareness, it's all to do with internal logistcs, it would probably have been different with a longer time before voting but the main problem was with our own organization.

So, what happened with this proposal at the European Go Congress? Was there an announcement that I missed?

Is everybody happy with the outcome?

Is everybody happy with the process?

Thanks.

The minutes from the AGM was just published
http://www.eurogofed.org/egf/agm2013.pdf wrote:
Introduction of guests from other International bodies
– The chairman of CEGO Lv Bin
was introduced and some back ground information was given. There were some questions
from the delegates. He replied that CEGO may be able to find Chinese companies for
sponsors of members’ events and requests should be made via the EGF.

Quote:
The UK representative pointed out that the contract has a vague content. It is more a
mixture of contract and press release and should rather be called a paper of
understanding. Poland’s representative remarked that there are many details missing.
Martin Stiassny: No problem to still add details, as the EGF is open for proposals.


As far as I understand, there is no proposal, only a "contract" that has already been signed.

I think it means that the EGF is open to new proposals which can be added onto the current contract.
It would be nice to see some more details on the new European tournament system that will be replacing the European Cup - Cristian Pop has won the last edition. We are, I presume, going to have some literature published soon which gives a guide to playing with Chinese Rules. Look forward to seeing it on the website. :)

Perhaps more and more Europeans will start referring to the game as weiqi since it will be played using Chinese rules.
