I'm curious if anyone who is not involved with USMS or their LMSC knows what rules are being proposed (aside from the no nationals outside US we've already discussed)?
Personally I'd love to see more attempts by USMS to post polls on this forum that summarize the proposals and for the LMSC's to try and "poll" their own constituents as to how they would like for them to vote on the proposals.
With the convention starting next week I really haven't dug to deeply into it and have not heard anything from the members of our LMSC as to what they will vote for/against...granted I could ask but in general I think most of us would like to have th info filtered down and sent out/posted.

Sorry, I could not find a sarcasm emoticon.
Allowing wetsuit swimmers (as a separate division, of course) is good business.
i agree, and believe that it should always be a separate div. regardless of the h2o temp, but this does add burden to the event directors.
i have participated in several events this year that were cancelled midway due to the enthusiastic participation of many swimmers who were unable to handle the currents. the inclusion of wet-suits certainly added significantly to the number of registrants.
