Believe me Ugleb. I have strongly argued for this from almost day one of my CSM term. I argued it across the table in Iceland, and I've managed to get two separate CSM issues on the subject voted through the council and sent to CCP urging this to happen.
To my eyes its a clear and necessary change and I think its of the utmost importance to the success of FW and roleplay consequence in Eve Online that this happens sooner rather than later.
Be assured I'll be saying as much again in Iceland at fanfest and am very much with you 100% on this.
My only concern - is that by making it standings dependent rather than simply allowing alliance corps to join FW by clicking "join" is that it will involve additional programming and ensure this will not happen for 6-9 months rather than the "by the next patch" that could conceivably be accomplished just by removing the existing code switch barring alliance corps from affiliation.

Supported and added to the agenda for Sunday 28th Sept.
(The arguments for this are frankly superior to those against)

We're had the 2nd formal meeting with CCP (over the last couple of weekends) and while I can't say anything officially as yet on the precise minutes (waiting formating and approval) lets just say things are looking pretty good for this proposal 
Its been a bit of a fight and lots of anti-feeling from a tiny (but vocal) minority inside FW but ultimately I think everyone sensible realizes that you just can't have bits of Eve content roped off from the rest of the game and inaccessible to the very players who are likely to enjoy it most and bring a lot to the table.
It was always an aberration that RP alliances like Ushra'Khan and the CVA were barred from FW - I very much hope and expect to see this resolved in the near future.

I really don't think it's going to happen...
Its going to happen.

Negative. Its clear the majority of players want this to happen.
Quote:
and in return you have disregarded the thousands of people who are currently involved in FW, and the original intent of FW.
Negative. You are not "thousands of players" and you don't speak for "thousands of players". You are one player and you have made your argument and in the final analysis it was found wanting in the process of debate. And I don't believe you are qualified to speak of the "orginal intent" of FW any more than you can represent a vast unspoken majority. Face facts, we've had the discussion and you didn't convince anyone.
Quote:
Involving alliance in FW's current state would be a disaster. Let's hope you had good sense to talk about the mechanics of it
Of course the mechanics were discussed. And as a solution I think it will satisfy pretty much everyone.
