Abstract
It is sometimes stated that in hybrid inflation; sometimes that it predicts . A number of authors have consider aspects of Planck scale corrections and argued that they affect these predictions. Here we consider these systematically, describing the situations which can yield , and the extent to which this result requires additional tuning.
