Well they can't join NATO whilst at war so I hope it's something like "the moment the war is over, you're in NATO"

More likely it's a Membership Action Plan, possibly streamlined to expedite their joining NATO.  I know some have talked about waiving the MAP, but that's unlikely to fly given membership has to be agreed upon unanimously by the alliance.

You're probably right but that would honestly be disappointing to me, or well, not a surprise? That's about the bare minimum I expect NATO to give to Ukraine (an expedited MAP).

Hopefully Ukraine is at least going to get protection during the application process by a few countries.
