I think the way the rule change decision was made should call into question
FAI's right to govern the highest levels of Indoor Free Flight competition.
Thus, we need to either change the FAI's bylaws to allow the community of
flyers to be heard, or find a new organization to organize international
competitions.
I think the prudent path at this point is work towards changing the FAI's
bylaws.
I tend to agree with John on this matter. Calm discussion historically has
not given way to revolutionary changes.

Nick
