<div>Abel,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The authors of soft landing overhaul will be releasing a statement in the next few days as to our intentions going forward, but are currently waiting for certain things from the authors of the BIS policy before doing so.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regardless of that input we will be commenting on either Monday or Tuesday on this matter.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As regards the minutes I also look forward to seeing those as well as the videos of that meeting which will stand as final testemant to what was said in the room</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks</div>
<div><br>

<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
During the last PDWG discussions, authors of the competing softlanding proposals agreed to work together on how to address the changes to the existing softlanding policy and come back to the PDPWG . Why this suddenly new enthusiastic thread.
<br>
When can we expect minutes of the last meeting please?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>

<br>
This I think should be anyone (whether New or Existing) can come back -<br>
but can only have up to a total of /21 space. If they already have a /21<br>
or more space - then they must go somewhere else (e.g. Transfer)<br>
You seem to imply only members with existing space can get from the last<br>
/12 ??<br>
<br>
> I like to come back limit as well.<br>
<br>
I'm suggesting no return limit - but a limit on their total accumulated<br>
space (/21).<br>

</span>> SO: I agree based on what you've proposed above<br>

<br>
I wouldn't put "we only need to last another 2/3 years" in a proposal. I<br>
think its important though to (gut-feel) estimate where this will take<br>
us, so people understand that this is not a "quick burn".<br>

<br>
Could do.<br>
Would be interesting to see how other people feel.<br>
My reason for only Phase 2 and 3 though was this would be more<br>
equivalent to a /8 from the other regions in proportion to how much<br>
total space we have. Phase 1 is almost business as usual. Phase 2/3 is<br>
where it really starts to hurt. I believe returns from phase 2/3 will<br>
actually keep us going even longer.<br>
