    Fairly certain everyone thinks they royally messed up the Clyde VI. I'm sure you'll have done better than you'd think!

    Not to sound like a broken record but if we haven't heard from NRF is it best to assume PFO?

    No news from NRF, applied 20th september. Do they invite WG in batches or do them all at once + reject the rest?
