The problems during the Pre-Words released a lobby among local
politicians in the province. It looks like they understand the problem. But
changing the rules will take a lot more time.

In the mean time, we (the Dutch) wanted to stretch the rules a bit to make task
setting easier, and making flying to Gubbio also possible for sport class
gliders. That's why we chose sticking to the rules and installing a big error
margin of 500 meters. Going up to 1820m plus 500m meant a warning, second time
(during the comp) a zero for the day. Maybe not the best solution, but having
the local politicians already supporting us we took the chance. Possible for a
Cat 2 event, probably not for a Cat 1.

It worked. About fifteen pilots got a warning, but luckily only one a zero for
entering zone 2 the day after his first warning.

Looks like the first four tasks were the only tasks, and the above are the final results.
