Better get your skates on!

When FIDE publish the minutes of the 2013 Congress, you should at least look at the minutes from the Qualification Commission meeting. All I will say is, G/60m FIDE rated chess, coming to a tournament near you!

**Update: Looks like this one lasted as long as it took FIDE Executive Board to see it, at which point it was kicked into touch! **
