I don't see why we should wait until October, it has been about 6 months since
the last one.  I defintaly think there should be an increment, otherwise we
remove the possibility of getting some of the manual operated engines in.
Something like 60 5, or even 45 10.

As to the number of rounds, is the consensus that we need more then 8 over 2
weekends as last time?  If we want it over one, I don't think we can really
expect more then 6 rounds.

For me, I would vote end of August, or early September.  October takes me right
into midterm time.
