Re: They had a plan ...
From the rumors it sounds like Boeing will not be allowed to participate in the next round of Commercial Crew as they have not yet fulfilled their existing launches.
"NASA wants two independent human rated vehicles to assure access to space. Long term that is looking more and more like Dragon and Starship."
The requirement is also for two independent suppliers.
We can assume that SpaceX will win one of the slots so that leaves the second slot as a competition between Blue Origin's bid and Dream Chaser.
