Ande and everyone else:
USMS has provided an official statement. Peter Busch read it on our live edition of The Morning Swim Show today. We have the news update running on our website, which includes the statement from Rob Copeland.
You can also find it in Jason Marsteller's continually updated story.
So, according to this, as of this moment, B70s can be worn in a masters sanctioned competition. I guess we await a statement from USA Swimming. The news show was unclear about what would be acceptable at the Janet Evans Invitational.
Banning a suit mid-year seems a bit bizarre. For example, some people have already competed in SCM (e.g., Canadian Nationals), but most will swim in the fall.
