I was aware of the change a few weeks ago, when Bob J mentioned it over on the McGriff board. But I didn't have my books at that point. Then I forgot about it until a couple weeks ago when somebody brought it up over here. So I pulled out the book, looked at the Penalty section, and saw the change. No, I wasn't keeping it a secret. See

And my reaction was that the rules committee realized that previously Camron and I were right; under the old ruling it would've been a T. They didn't want it to be a T, so they changed the wording of the penalty, so that the play is now legal.
