As conjectured by Casey in the meeting of 2014-03-12, there do indeed exist 4 maximal subsemigroups of B arising from removing part of the second D-class. However, the MaximalSubsemigroups algorithm (in the maximal branch) currently returns only 2 such results. Below, they are the maximal subsemigroups of size 167.

Let B be the (bi)parition monoid on 3 points.
As conjectured by Casey in the meeting of 2014-03-12, there do indeed exist 4 maximal subsemigroups of B arising from removing part of the second D-class. However, the MaximalSubsemigroups algorithm (in the maximal branch) currently returns only 2 such results. Below, they are the maximal subsemigroups of size 167.
Now to create the 4 conjectured by Casey:
The 2 results it does find arise from "YannRecursion". On first glance, this might suggest a bug in that function.
I will investigate further.
