Consistency of SOCA at the aleph-two level

Let $\textbf{SOCA}(\aleph_2)$ denote the version of the Open Coloring Axiom at cardinality $\aleph_2$.

SOCA($\aleph_2$) consistency conjecture. The statement $\textbf{SOCA}(\aleph_2)$ is consistent.

The paper presents this as a step toward establishing the consistency of $\textbf{SOCA}(\aleph_2)$, following consistency techniques for $\textbf{SOCA}(\aleph_1)$. No resolution is supplied in the excerpt.
