I agree with Ed here. If we have a stipulated time period set for proposals then grace period sounds like a real-life deal. However, I would also encourage the idea of opening this up early and keep the folder ready and officials review the merge prop 2 months prior to the final date. It's better to have a final date with longer open period than a small firm set date.
