Now I know what a good number of you may be thinking. Stop napfesting!
In my case the lobby is in the other direction. We need more reds! Yes, this is a proposal that is of direct and immediate benefit to those of us who practice NRDS (Not Red Don't Shoot)
The game has grown substantially, the standing slots (which I believe stand at 300) are simply not adequate for the current population or the growth rate of the game. Hostiles who hide in npc corps all need separate standings. Corps and Alliances that drift in an out may require standings. The numbers add up. You may want to set someone + as well, heaven forbid.
I freely admit this proposal is a bit selfish, the CVA is NRDS. Imperial Dreams administrates many outposts. For those unaware, you use corp standings for docking rights pricing and other factors. More slots would enable more considerations, more use of standings other than -10, 0 or +10. There is no loser by supporting this change.
What does this cost NBSI groups or others who simply do not care? Nothing! At worst you ignore the extra slots. At best perhaps you embark on your own standings experiments. This proposal does empower those groups who like to play at the politics, or manage territory or enrich the game with years long grudges to exercise more control. There are thousands of pilots in EVE who stand to benefit from increased standing slots. I ask for your support at bringing this to CCP's attention. Double, triple (or more!) the standings for a corperation.

More slots are definitely needed.
In the past it's been possible to use alliance standings once you run out of corporation ones, but with the advent of faction warfare that's not going to be possible for a lot of us.

I'm guessing that there might be a 'need for speed' angle to this, in that each time someone enters local their corp/alliance needs to be checked against the standings table of your corp/alliance (and multiplied by the number of people in system) unless it is cached in some way to the 35,000 or so pilots in pod at any time. Either way, there might be an issue with implementing it.
Saying that though, I can see nothing 'special' about 300 (it isn't a power of 2, for example, and doesn't have any good hash qualities) so a higher number is almost certainly technically feasible (511 at least?) and I would support this proposal. The 'game' has moved on from when the initial number of slots was set ...

You know, I had totally forgotten about the faction warfare aspects! If faction warfare is a success there will most certainly be a need for more slots.
I know this does not seem like a hotbutton issue but it does have the fortune of being fairly simple and quick to discuss, hence it would not take much council time (I would think. Anyway, please support!

This is indeed an issue as its really hard to keep track of friendlys and hostiles if you use standings to define those instead of NBSI, also if someone could find some way to get alliance standing to effect corp standing for things such as POS or outposts it would be really nice.

Yes.... standings slots are HORRID right now for corporations that run stations... More standing slots please... over 1000 would be wonderful, unlimited would be better.

Aye!
Also
Let alliance set standing to individual players,
Let alliances be able to share standings with other alliances.

I would prefer a standing list you can share with other alliances or corps.
For example the alliance put someone on their standing list, all corps just say: we will use this standing list.
Other corps could use this standing list or you can make a standing list for your space or region and all people that life there can use this list.
That would be save much time, for example a new corp have to set 400 or 500 standings.. that would take hours.
At least the import and export of a standing list(for example a csv file) should be possible.

I agree that increased standing functions are important. There is still a problem with the 300 cap on corporation standings however. Sharing lists is a great idea, but not one that is practical for all those who would benefit from more corporation standing slots.

This is a partisan proposal that will only benefit a small number of individuals whilst affecting every organization in game. 
This is evidenced by the people who are supporting it are all from CVA or their allies. 
Even if it could be implemented it is an unimportant topic that is unneeded at this stage of the game and there are more important issues to be solved first, like sorting out lag. 
But seriously, why not.
Having more options here can only help rather than hurt, and 300 is a small number given the thousands of political entities in game (seem to recall it was enough for Leonidas though :P ).
Fully supported.
