I wouldn't hold your breath. This policy is an old one, and there was a LOT of talk (from attendees) last year about revising it, and D*C's response was far from encouraging.

I'd like to think that davidvcody is right above, and they're going to rewrite it to be legit, but frankly I'll believe it when I see it.
