[RSI won the community vote for the next mining ship.] So now you've got to begin the process of designing a new mid- to high-tier mining vehicle in the RSI style. Where does this conversation start?

Like all things, it starts with a design brief, and that's actually sat on my desk back in the office. So when I'm finished here, I'm going to give it my sign-off and then pass it around through the design leads and Chris to give it the final sign-off. And then that's where Ben and his team will come in. This will be one of the ships that I'll be running from concept forward, whereas up until now it's always been running the production after the concept process. The new ships at the moment are going to be from concept forward. So it'll be a nice learning curve, to make sure we learn from some of the issues we've had with making sure things are correctly documented from the start.
