At a minimum, ASA has not made this clear -- or I have not looked in the right place. I heard this was passed during emergency legislation in the summer or fall, but I can't seem to find a clear statement on this anywhere. I assume that the 2003 rule book will be clear.

This change was already passed last July under an "emergency status" vote. This was to give the manufacturers time to comply.
The compression is changed, but I understand they may retain the COR .470 for JO ball.
