Baum–Dąbrowski–Hajac conjecture on equivariant maps from joins

Let XX be a compact Hausdorff space with a continuous free action of a nontrivial compact Hausdorff group GG. Let XGX*G denote the join equipped with the diagonal action of GG. Baum–Dąbrowski–Hajac conjecture. There does not exist an equivariant continuous map

f:XGX.f:X*G\to X.

The proposition immediately preceding this conjecture gives a partial solution when XX is a free HH-space that is compact, or paracompact and finite dimensional, and HH is a topological group with a nontrivial finite subgroup. The general compact Hausdorff case stated here remains unresolved in the supplied text.
