Updates from the discussions (My summary not councils):
Without taking this topic into account, the discussions (Mur, Coucil, I) are at the point that it is mostly agreed that the alliance will be returned. Mur is in favour of using the trust points method. There is however still some discussion on the viability of that.
From a personal view, it seems like most of this thread dont care for them getting the alliance back and arbitrarily ask for "actions".
As a point for everyone, because apparently even those highest in leadership do not remember, _NEVER_ wait on something Mur has promised. It can take months for something Mur has claimed will happen to happen, if it happens at all. Deal with what there is at the moment and never use an excuse of "We are waiting for X magical change before we do something". The same goes to me for a lesser extent, What I state something is going to happen, it probably will, but I have periods of extreme business and then relative calm so work time is unpredictable.
