The dihedral weak local Oort conjecture in characteristic two

About 9 years old · traced to

Let D2nD_{2^n} denote the dihedral group of order 2n2^n, and let kk be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 22. A group is a weak local Oort group if at least one local extension with that group lifts to characteristic zero.

Dihedral weak local Oort conjecture. The group D2nD_{2^n} is a weak local Oort group for 22.

This conjecture is motivated by the proof that D4D_4 is weak local Oort. It extends that evidence to all dihedral 22-groups, but the source gives no general proof.
