Dear Igor,

we are in the process of identifying the statistical significance of our
results, as well as we are still playing with all - more or less -
reasonable cuts. We haven't even produced an analysis note let alone a
paper draft on this topic. Hence criticizing cut conditions as well as
other claims that have not been finalized still doesn't make too much
sense. Of course, suggestions to optimize cuts and/or the analysis are
always welcomed but best placed if we could discuss them with you in our
weekly meetings, where you could also learn more about issues we already
have discussed.

One last remark, we clearly cannot unambiguously state that we have
measured the production off a free proton, but we can determine the
so-called spectator-proton momentum even below 200 MeV/c.

Best regards,

Ralf
