Devil Dubai Phase 17 flow rates

Anyone in Dubai app know if there will be NOTAMs issued about holding fuel or slot times for when the new flow rates start?

With 15 landers/15 arrivials max per hour at Dubai can see ALOT of holding coming up, especially during the evening inboud burst. Do you know how the rules will work? i.e. can you swap some of the outbound slots for inbound ones?

Based on the frequency of being told by pilots that they can only accept minimum holding(ie 2 maybe 3 at a stretch) before they hit min fuel/divert/declare fuel emg I can see alot of overworked pilots/atc in the very near future trying to sort out landing/divert times and who can fit them on the ground.
