I agree with Nafri on the subject.
My largest grievance is stating what a minnie ship aught to do, rather then give us choices on the matter; so please don't make it a mission runner

Gack, what's with this thread? A 8-7-4/5 layout would mean a ship that can tank, gank, AND EWar fairly effectively. What's with the complaining?
I think people fear 6 midslots, I've not seen 7 mentioned by the devs anywhere, but I might be wrong.
Anyway the old reason:
People have dreamt of a ship, their ship, that was destroyed by giving us THE ship; not everyone dreamt of a buff slow shield tank (for sure) -, and many are indeed annoyed that their dream didn't make it.
Mine was a AC BS derived from the Stabber, or a dedicated missile platform; getting the oposite is not kind on ones dreams, so one grows annoyed thinking about it.
As for the end result, getting the exact layout for the ship might change anyones mind more or less, depending on just how slow it is, what can we fit to it, and perhaps mostly how many mids do it get? Some might change theirs when they fly it, while some will hate it forever ever.
Then we have those whole love the unwanted and flies the phoon or forgotten t1 frigs etc, so it will please someone, but here the vocal majority rules, and most ain't happy campers a good day anyway.
[EDITED, to broaden what in thoery might like to see]

I could live with 6 mids if it had a huge drone bay so I could field 5 heavy web drones. Otherwise, it needs 7 mids.
yeah, that goes for anything that balances the ship out, like a really nasty combo of good cap & shield might be worth the lost mid, adding other possible solutions as well.
I'm just going to wait some more until we get some more info

Again you must do a trade of and drop a invi field.Sure you will have less tank but it balances out just like with the raven.And that my friends is what we like to call balance.
As Sarmaul pointed out the raven loads javelins and would be done with it.
besides being able to shoot at any range, without tracking problems and being a cheaper ship.
not to mention the tracking mods you would need for arties.

This ship is all too neat and orderly for mini..were did my crazy crash-into battle style go?
I somewhat miss this as well, and like so many others it seems, hoped for a stabber version 
good desciption on how minmatar should be by the way, I need to keep that one around.
