Be aware that with this procedure (which I in fact find most interesting)
the Director MUST inform West that if he accepts the OBOOT by South then his
partner (East) will be subject to possible penalty under Law 31, while if
West does NOT accept South's OBOOT then East's bid will in fact be in turn
under Law 28A!

Failure to give West this information is a serious error by the Director!
