I think this is in agreement with the Canon. I should
be hunting for quotes now, but I'm too busy - ah,
the good old times when I had a job and _lots_ of
time to spend in my hobbies!

 Then we would have

 pre-uplift/claim phase
 minority (uplift proper, uplift stages 1-5 per GURPS Uplift 2nd ed.)
 indenture (payoff for minority, new request from DB SeJ, et al)
 maturity.

That's what I think is the correct sequence of events.

 Would you like me to add an extra-cannonical true indenture to
 any future fan-fic I might write?

Maybe you can keep things a little bit obscured :-)

Indenture: was Notes on Uplift

 I agree with your interpretation of GURPS Uplift. But I still think that
 the indenture phase should be _another_ phase. Uplift is considered a
 service that the patron does to the client, so this must be followed
 by the indenture, that is way of paying back.
