Archery & Rules of the List

While I'm on this particular vein of thought, does anybody know why
the
 rules of the list were removed from the red tape issue? I asked a
 marshal at an event I was at a good time ago and was told that Atlantia
 had pared down its rules to Society standards - reading a copy of the
 society rules would tell me everything I needed to know. This
discussion
 on combat archery shows that statement to no longer be wholey true.
        Granted, I don't often have combat archers thunking bolts
against my
 armor, but I am the most experienced fighter in my area of
no-man's-land
 and would be the person a new fighter or archer turned to in order to
 learn the rules.
