TL;DR
Jump-drive capable ships no longer eligible to use the bridge
One bridge per system
Fuel changes
I like it. Seems like they put some thought into the adjustments. Too much? Too little? Weigh in.

"fuel changes" does this mean it uses MORE fuel, so that fewer people can go through?
"We will be limiting the number of jumpbridges you can have in a system to one, while upping the fuelbay to 30.000 (3x) to avoid suicide among players who do logistics."
I don't see anything about increasing usage, just that the bays will be larger.

lol "to avoid suicide" from logi players they will need to do a LOT more.
I.e:
1. Increase JF capacity and jump range and allow JF cyno jumping into highsec
2. half the price of JFs
3. Allow batch sell orders with different items to avoid 8 million clicks per jita visit (should also help with lag)
I can think of a few more things but, meh... im being a whiner..
however, every time i undock in the JF, suicide is imminent.
Los
Also they need to be able to jump to any station you have jump clone or office at from inside the station without undocking so long as you have enough fuel in your hold. Also it should be free to jump to jita 4-4 station
Local dropped by one

link?Well I posted a light-hearted troll on some other forum about this and got flamed... seems like this change is hitting a nerve.
Up until now I haven't really bothered working out the JB map, but there are going to be hundreds of new places to gank people with these changes.

Up until now I haven't really bothered working out the JB map, but there are going to be hundreds of new places to gank people with these changes.
Here: http://nc-jb-map.appspot.com/ . I'm pretty sure it's in another thread but I can't remember where; that link was from FHC. You can see both why the NC are complaining so bitterly, and why many consider the one-per-system change necessary.
I'm smiling at all the tears and hyperbole in the E-O comments, though I do have a faint niggling feeling that the Sov-holders are so vehement they may have (a bit of) a point, and they should get some benefit to holding the space. But then I see the whining about having to use gates at all to travel and swing back to "screw 'em - let the networks burn, so they can experience what the rest of us go through!"
I'm especially confused by the JF moans - why would they go through bridges in the first place? Surely the first word is the operative one here, and stations are no longer rare in Sov space (heck, we built one somewhat on a whim) for midpoint use. Am I missing something?
