I asked Jayne Fillon these questions and got some good answers, so I thought I'd spread the love:

1) How are you planning to contribute to something actually getting done with respect to sov nullsec? Clearly, it's not on CSM to get it done, but the will has been there for years on both sides of the table. There is no shortage of ideas. There's been no shortage of debate. So instead of talking about ideas, let's just assume that CCP has a plan, ready for your feedback. Would you be willing to start a process of potentially disrupting nullsec over a period of (likely) years in order to start a steady trickle of features that will eventually coalesce into a new system? Would you rather try to hammer out a major release, with plenty of notice to interested parties, and accept that its release would not happen in your term, and
possibly not for some time after that? (After all, how long has it already been?) Or would you be more inclined to support whichever tactic CCP seems most inclined toward?

2) What if there's more than one way to claim and maintain sovereignty? What if it was more granular, and several alliances could share sovereignty of one system?

3) Let's say that CSM 9 has exactly the same impact on nullsec that previous CSMs have had: much discussion, some good ideas, some bad ideas, and some new shinies, but at the end of the day it's still IHUBs and TCUs and SBUs as far as the eye can see. What will you tell the people who are now hoping that you, or someone, will ~fix sov~?
