Richard Hills:

If truly "earnestly to be hoped for", then the problem perhaps is one
of Law 23 (Awareness of Potential Damage).

As to what The Powers That Be want, this message is on the ecats
website, http://www.ecatsbridge.com/Documents/2007laws.asp ->

"January 2008

The WBF Laws Drafting Subcommittee is considering a problem drawn to
its attention concerning Law 27C.

It is possible this Law will be rewritten. Alternatively guidance in
the form of a footnote or an interpretation may be issued.

Please hold back any publication of this Law until a solution has been
agreed and issued."

That is the end of the gnus.
Here are the head lions again.


Best wishes
