It has been discussed between the programmers themselves for a few months.
The rule has not been imposed by the ICCA. It has been suggested to the ICCA by
most of the programmers, *including* amateurs.
The rule is not taylor-made for commercial companies. It has been designed in
the spirit of respecting the copyrights on opening books.
For the first time the programmeurs have a say on the rules way before the event
starts. That's a significant progress.
