I'd be OK opening 2♥. If I get 2N then 4♦ shows 5611

Wow.
Depends upon the sensibility of North, I would bid 5♦ most of the week but I can see a case for going more slowly.

You get 2N from GiB, no idea what it would make of 4♦ (and what would 4♣ have been?).

If I am playing with Fred I'm tempted to bid 3nt, but I think it's just a little on the light side.

After seeing the rest of the auction, I wish I had opened 3nt

You’d better be sure tyat partner takes your double as majors as opposed to ‘I have clubs for you but not a hand for bidding to the 4 level’

I have faith in you when I pull 4cX to 4H,
