I presume many of them are waiting to see what the final language of 2257 looks like after the comment period ends before deciding on a policy/strategy. Of course, that means affiliates won't have any lead time at all. As usual. |pissed|

What a lot of people have not considered is that there is a period after the comment where the comments will be considered. If the DOJ just blows this off, then all the 1st ammendment lawyers will file suit against the goverment for not considering their opinion. There is a possibility the comments will be considered and then there will be another comment period of shorter duration. That is why you are probably seeing the flim-flamming on the part of the sponsors. They probably won't do anything till they have to.
If the crackdown does come - it will be interesting to see how affiliate programs will be surviving without affiliates.
