Recognizing that friendships are important. It's easy when younger to take them for granted. Easy come, easy go (even when not easy come). That's profoundly mistaken. Friendships of all kinds are important and deserve a deliberate

Backup / duplication is not an easy project for sure. But meanwhile for now IA is a single organization operating under one legal system. And one technical setup, would be relevant today. That's a major weakness.
