I also seem to recall that there were some adjustments to the octagon that give a convex shape with an even lower packing density than the octagon. I don't know if the inf over all convex shapes S of the sup over all density-defined packings' densities is realizable by a specific shape (though I would expect so) or by a specific packing of that shape (no idea).
Does anyone out there know more about this?
