Hello Elmar, 

That is a very good question. I hate to be a pessimist but quickly  
become when I see this pattern reoccuring. 
Maybe, in itself its important to make sure the first creation - the  
concept - is done well enough to be of its own validity when maybe  
later someone finally implements it. Also; whether the last phase  
happens says something about how important it is directly for people.  
However; sometimes something needs to be done that individuals or  
companies are not having motivating interest in - this is what we  
will spend Association money on. 

Just a few thoughts, I'm very interested in others opinions on how to  
actually finalize our projects. 

BTW: It reminds me of some commercials I saw in Charles de Gaulle  
airport last week: Imagine a poster where you see a statue which is  
only finished around the head and the body is still a solid stone. Or  
imagine a picture of a piramid only half built. The text was "No  
achievement without lasting commitment".
