Josef,
Did you copy ccie@cisco.com on that email? If not, it might worth trying it,
you never know. It is good venting it on groupstudy, but the guys who
introduced these confusion in the first place and who also have the ability
to set the records straight are elsewhere.
It goes without saying that, the CCIE program needs CCIE candidates and I
believe they will be ready to listen to such candidates and will take their
suggestions and concerns into consideration especially when it deals with
policy conflicts like these.
My .2 cents.
