The Rules were re-written for the second time in 2002, all the additions and interpretations of the previous 14 years were included in the main text, the numbering was completely different.

The present edition includes two new administrative sections, in compliance with ISAF Standard Class Rules.  Appendixes 1 to 6 are to be considered as part of the Rules and are now included in the official text, approved by ISAF.  All decisions and official interpretations of the previous years are incorporated in the text.
