Having read through all 9 pages it seems that my initial concerns are echoed by a few others...
1) More High Slots.
If this is meant to be a mining command ship it should be able to take the 3 mining foreman links in addition to tractor beams and (possibly) a salvager. so long as it's 0/0 on turrets and launchers, I really can't see why there's not 6 high slots.
2) Rebalance the Space
Whilst the cargohold expands with EC Mods and Rigs, it's actually the Corp Hanger that needs the extra space to allow haulers to collect from it. Unless you intend the Orca to be the hauler in which case why give it command bonuses?
3) Gang Link Bonus
There's been no mention of if the Orca can run 1 or 3 command links. If it's one then you'll loose two of your precious 3 mid slots to Command Processor modules. Oh and there's no mention of reduction of CPU for Gang modules.

general replies to some questions and clarifications
Thanks for the clarifications Chronotis. Are we going to get a boost to the tractor beam speed if it's going to take over a minute to bring a can from max distance?

Having seen the test server version now, I have an additional though:
I am actually kinda disappointed in the build requirements. By only using components who's BPOs cost a billion each (rather then a mix of high and low cost BPOs), construction of this ship has been put of the reach of smaller corps and, more importantly, makes it difficult to have mixed teams working on the ship, thus cutting out younger builders from the process.
I must admit I've just done the sums and I'm horrified! If the numbers on Sisi were to be believed, it looks like it's gonna cost around 450m to make, but cost you 9bil ISK for all the BPO's to make one. All the BPO's to build a freighter are only about 7b ISK. This make Gil cry

The alternative is to raise it to 1m m3 but limit it to Industrials and Mining Vessels only.
