I started a similar poll before,but time has changed things and I thought since USMS is going to have to do something definitive so they should have some input from the forumites
By the way, before the FINA committee can come to a view, each of the member organizations needs to come to a view. So it may be premature to say we are stuck with USMS's view. This might just be USMS's proposal for the greater FINA masters leadership to consider, similar to the way that USA-S proposed no more body suits for the "elite" swimmers. My guess is that we may still end up following the international Masters consensus if that consensus is something different than USMS's initial view.
