ok - I chatted with the alliance leads and it went well.
They've heard about us already from some chat's I've had with some of their other guys.
They like our approach and would be interested in us joining them
Based on the chat they don't think we need to be trial and can start with Tier 1.
While there is a process & cost involved - it's fair, cuts out any time wasters and minimises thier exposure to "spy" corps.
I said I would talk with you and, if you were in agreement, submit the ISK & apply tomorrow.
