Personally while I don't remember which poster said no RFI was requested, it's was someone I respect and who I believed was living somewhere in Europe, so they could be in a position to actually know. Of course it also could be a good, or bad guess, but that's why I'm at 90% and not higher.
I guess by that standard, anyone living in Canada, Mexico, Central America or the United States ‘could be in a position to know’ what the FDA is doing!
