I posted a link to Greg Shahade's call for faster time controls the other day. Looks like he'll get his wish, at least for one top tournament. The Zurich Chess Challenge in early 2016 will feature a "time control of 40 minutes per game with additional 10 seconds for each move," per their web site. The six participants will be Viswanathan Anand, Levon Aronian, Anish Giri, Vladimir Kramnik, Hikaru Nakamura, and Alexei Shirov. You can read more about it there.
