The minutes from the recent USFSA Board of Directors meeting have been posted: http://www.usfigureskating.org/content/BOD%20ROA%20October%2029%202005.pdf
Of interest to adult skaters is that CoP will be implemented at AN in 2007 in the Gold and Masters events, and will be used for all levels starting in 2008.
It seems to me that there needs to be some fine-tuning of the system to make it adult-compatible. After all, the system was designed to judge elite junior and senior international comps. I think some adjustment needs to be made to balance the point allocations for jumps with the other elements to account for single rev and half rev (like waltz) jumps.
