Guys, I posted the original message on the "Rest Rules Delayed until" thread, and it was reposted here. Yes, this is the ORIGINAL proposal, and the link should take you straight to that.
The rules you see in Nov 2011 will be whatever the lobbyist pay for:
[Federal Register: September 14, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 177)]
[Proposed Rules]
[Page 55851-55889]
From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov]
[DOCID:fr14se10-24]

LAX 0445 sign in - GMAFB! If I was unfortunate enough to get this heap of crap I think I would just sleep in the Pilot lounge. Why not give this to an east crew laying over vice an originating west coast crew?
East coast 0630 push-back on day two of a 4 day west coast trip - Yikes!
So yes, with the proper restrictions, it would be OK with me. But as with everything, the devil is in the details. We will see just how much pull the industry lobbyists have when the final proposal is released.
