   1.  Each team will comprise *three* students who are *enrolled in a
       degree program*  at *the same* educational institution.
   [...]

Can anyone 'in the know' comment on the motivation behind moving from
teams of four students to teams of three students?  It doesn't matter
much to me, in fact it'll be easier to bring two teams to regionals
now, but I'm curious about the change.  Where are the contest finals
going to be held next year?  What operating system will be used?

Thanks for any info.
