Being CDL Commish requires a bunch of my time and don't think I could commit to Commishing another league.

6 or 7 sound good to me as well as 6 bench spots.
Do you think we need to make it madatory 18/12 split? Why not allow the owners to have some flexibility.

Waiting till the next off season sounds like a good plan for these two.

I think 2 rounds at the min for the draft. Do we need to think about flattening out the curve if we do this though. We will be effectivly doubling the talent level so we should probably alter the sloap or players will be going way to cheap.
Speaking of this we will probably need to alter the bonus structure somewhat because it is based on the round drafted.

Contract extentions work great in CDL.
Basically teams can sign a player to an extention if he has 2 or more years left on his contract. If he is in the final year of his contract he cannot be resigned. This forces team to trade players that have 1 year on their deal if they want to get any value for the player.

The CDL version is pretty useless at the moment. It could be fixed by making it the average of the top 10 (or somewhere around there) instead of top 4

How about something more creative than just tacking on IDP?:bag

Pure donation on my part as well i am sure.

Not sure how many guys have IDP experience but this would help level the playing field.

Sure why not.
