We're looking at ways to iterate on the system post release. Contract length and allies in mutual wars are pretty high on the list, as well as changes that will inevitably emergence once we see the system used. Once Inferno goes out it will be easier to start putting a date on some of these things. I'm not quite sure how you're going to 'iterate' out of this one, but good luck....
Nothing much to add beyond what Alek/McCreary have other than, good luck finding someone willing to take on a POS removal contract, 24 hours from now.

Some of the points are good. Mutual war means both sides get allies. Sounds fair to me.
I also think that you should declare using mutual to trap allies into a war is an exploit for now and allow GM action on those who do until a proper fix is in place.
Most of what else is just people whining about having to face uncertainty and the blob for once. Please continue to allow allies to join the defense in any number for no cost. Good sir, this has nothing to do with 'griefing idiots', rather legitimate concerns for a legitimate [mercenary] profession and the services rendered.
For info, High sec work is but one facet of what we do.

@Endeavour Starfleet & co.
War declarations as a whole are not GÇÿgriefingGÇÖ - period. Please avoid continuing this simplistic GÇÿgriefingGÇÖ/'ganking'/'abusing the system' fallacy as it demonstrates a complete misconception about the nature of Eve and its player driven economy.
War declarations, in particular, through 3rd party mercenary operations, are a feature that CCP clearly intended/intends/desires as another tool in the GÇÿtoolkitGÇÖ of an industrialist; to be used as the ultimate resolver of competition, be it over limited resources (GÇ£I want THAT moon for my own R&D POSGÇ¥), market share or something as simple as prestige.
If you cannot appreciate that, you donGÇÖt stand a hope of understanding why this new system has deep flaws.
I look forward to seeing how this GÇÿiterationGÇÖ goes, CCP Soundwave
