Reflective forcing at the first ω1\omega_1-Mahlo cardinal

A cardinal κ\kappa is ω1\omega_1-Mahlo when the set of regular cardinals below κ\kappa has the relevant ω1\omega_1-stationarity property; (κ,ω1)(\kappa,\omega_1)-reflective forcing denotes the forcing notion satisfying the paper's defined reflection condition at parameters κ\kappa and ω1\omega_1.

Consistency conjecture. It is consistent, relative to the existence of large cardinals, that there is (κ,ω1)(\kappa,\omega_1)-reflective forcing where κ\kappa is the first ω1\omega_1-Mahlo cardinal.

This conjecture proposes that the hypotheses used in the paper's reflection theorems are close to optimal. The supplied text gives no resolution or large-cardinal consistency proof, so the status is open.
