I placed an order 2 weeks ago - waiting impatiently for a shipping notice...

Interesting that they are going for different fabrics.

My reduce pack size obsession of late leaves me wondering what I'd do with a 60l pack...

I get your point. In my case, a double quilt and putting ccf mats inside the pack should fill it nicely. Plus, the main pack is 47l; I tend not to fill the pockets.

Sounds good.... I'm waiting for you to plan me a Spring weeks backpacking in Turkey by the way

Sure Ed, if you ever decide to come, pm me and we can talk about what's good at the particular time of year and I can probably send you some suitable gpx tracks and help with logistics.

It's interesting that they've added a note about the Linelocs slipping, I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets it.

I've set mine now, I put a good arc in the carbon rod, pulled plenty of line through and then put an overhand knot on the cord where I wanted to fix it, then just pulled it back through and locked it against the knot. I've only done the top ones so we'll see how it goes next week when I'm out.
