Evening all
this qualifying phrase (from a paper on plastic pipe testing) is causing me a headache. Full(ish) sentence:
"Diese Positionen machen deutlich, dass die Problematik der Druckrohrverlegung sehr unterschiedlich eingeschätzt wird und zumindest für höhere Innendrücke keinesfalls auch nur in Ansätzen als gelöst angesehen werden kann."
I'm at a loss trying to read this author's mind - any ideas out there please?
Much appreciated as ever
Thanks

There might be more elegant ways to phrase this, but that's what is what is meant here.

No, I am not stuttering. Please forget the second "what is". :-))
