For those that would like a copy of the rules you can
find them at http://www.ishs.org/sci/icracpco.htm.
I
think they have been revising them every 5 years. The
book is
difficult reading refering back and forth
between paragraphs in different
sections. The previous
rules used to be available online and usually
most
changes in recent times have been small.
