Yeah, I just got a selection announcement saying there's only 6. Guess the amended rules came out after that was written? Though, in the first set of rules they didn't give National Athlete quotas for the round in NZ so I took that as meaning it was undecided.
So pretty sure we get 10 + 10, but do we get still get 11 women in the middle because Lizzie won Oceania's?? I can't find anything to back that up in the new rules.

Another thing worth noting, if I've interpreted it correctly, the way the overall 2013 WC scoring works, all three of the races here Must contribute to the final score. While there's no shortage of other point scoring opportunities, that still makes a pretty strong incentive for anyone with high aims in the world cup to attend. Should balance out the travel and out-of-season disincentives when some of the top international competitors (the odd non-Australasian one, that is) are deciding whether or not to be available for selection.
