Yeah I think Europe 2007 is an exception to that rule so a box set of Avocado/Backspacer/LB would ideally have the London 2007 show in it.

Would Jeff be ok with outsourcing it to anyone? Hell Andrew Watt seems like such a superfan he could compile it. If he has time. SVT would be a great addition to it as would anything unreleased. Hell Merkinball could be included if they could sort the label issues. Though that's also a RSD option.

This could be my memory playing tricks on me but didnt they once say the reason they never released 2007 as a bootleg year was something to do with the quality of the recordings they had?

They were between two different companies doing the bootlegs. 2006 was one, 2008 another. Cant remember which was which. Basecamp and something else. Maybe they had no one in 2007

Not anytime soon. I don’t remember what interview but Jeff said he was tired of going through all the old stuff and has no plans of doing anymore of them. 

I remember, but also recall in a podcast Stone saying he is very interested in releasing the next few box sets.

Stone and Jeff are essentially opposites of each other.
Perfect opposites at that, as they create magic together.
This whole interview was great, but here's the clip where they go over how different they are.

Im sure I read that the shows were recorded but the quality wasnt the best

I recall this as well.

Ten was sold everywhere, but I guess didn't live up to sales expectations because--

--Vs and Vitalogy had to share one box (might not be connected to sales... but... hmm yeah) and was only sold through the fanclubs own shop...

I know Jeff has said something back then about not wanting to be stuck in the past. But I doubt sales did not have a (main) part in it. i mean, this is the band  selling 12 different vinyl colours to make money.

But would love it to continue with No Code or No Code/Yield. They did a lot right with these box sets. I just wish the trinkets included would have been excluded, and instead a documentary or a detailed book of the era and time in the studio would take have taken the place of the pointless tat (photos of the stuff could have been in the book - like that great issue of DEEP with stuff from the past). They also could have gone "all out" with a full disc of B-sides and extra songs. Tacking a few extra songs at the end of an album disc that was meant to be one complete thing without them doesn't sit right with me in general. Put in on an extra disc - and that would have also given the opportunity to just stack it with stuff. Going by the Dave A cassettes we know things existed - covers, early rehearsals etc. Also not a fan of CD:s and LP:s of the same thing being in the same box. Have a CD and an LP boxset if you need to have CD as an option.

I believe Brad from Kufala Recordings said they were all recorded. Was just waiting for the green light to release them. 

HughFreakingDillon

yes, they were recorded, but the band said the recordings weren't up to snuff (paraphrasing)

Well I hope he does!  I just hope they do it a little better. The Ten box was ok with it having some unreleased tracks, the DVD, Cassete and the cool live vinyl. To me the Vs/Vitalogy was lacking. The live vinyl was cool but I hope for some completed unreleased studio tracks as well. Seems like there should be a ton of stuff they could add with a No Code/Yield box that we’ve never had access to 

HughFreakingDillon

a 7" of Small Mosquito would be cool with No Code

Indeed. I would be happy if they added 2 live No Code & Yield DVD's plus 2 live vinyl from shows / sources that have never seen the light of day in one of those Box Sets.
