From the announcement:
QuoteSo far, there is no conclusive evidence of anomalous heat by MFMP.
... they should have added, "nor by anyone else." (and especially not from Defkalion, Rossi, Miley, Swartz, Nanospire and Brillouin)

^Also, the word "conclusive" should be erased as misleading.
"No evidence what so ever" would be better reflecting the reality.

the conclusion:
QuoteDisplay More
1. Ultra dense hydrogen can be the source of all or part of Cold fusion LENR related phenomena.
2. Laser induced fusion in Ultra dense hydrogen seemingly produces mesons, possibly in a proton or neutron meson spallation process. (Full 4π calorimetric high energy particle detection exp. needed)
3. If confirmed, such process releases similar or higher energy than fission of Uranium 200MeV.
4. Rossi Ni-H product commercialized 2016?
5. Limited energy system disruption starts 2016 and takes 5-20 years?
6. Funded basic research in cold fusion starting 2016-2017?
7. Full scale energy system disruption possible 2020-2030?
8. Theory possible 2017-2019? -
Replications urged.
It looks like a big challenge will be preparing the potassium/iron oxide catalysts properly. They're not really "plug and play": even in the petrochemical processes they're commonly employed for, they need a dedicated "activation" process in order to function properly.
Jones Beene reported on vortex-l that it might possibly take weeks for enough ultra-dense deuterium to accumulate in order for any effect to show. I find this strange as there was no mention of this in any of the papers from Holmlid et al I've read. Could it be a worst-case scenario in case of improper catalyst preparation and no active hydrogen flux through it? (ie: as in typical LENR experiments where the active material is simply heated in a hydrogen atmosphere) Confirmation needed ASAP.
