I know Envoy/Eagle rejected the same deal twice (12/4). This was at a time when Expressjet, Republic, and Eagle said no to anymore concessions. Those roughly 10,000 pilots tried to stop the race to the bottom. Only took 800 PSA pilots to lower the bar again. Now 47 Envoy/Eagle crj700s will be transferred to PSA. I don't know if Delta's hiring department is aware of the current industry but I hope they are.
