This from a german forum, posted by Adham:

Quote:

So, unless you are playing at an ITTF event, there will be no enforcement of the friction rule other than the approved rubbers list. With other words, the rule of so called "modified" rubbers will not be enforced at non ITTF events (as the testing equipment is too expensive).
With other words - there is no planned enforcement of the friction rule at non ITTF events.. Therefore, things like "aging" a rubber and other techniques to reduce friction will not be tested for. If a rubber is on the list, you are allowed to use it ;-)

So really what they're saying is the frictionless ban has all been a big Hoax and everyone (excepting perhaps Fabian Akerstrom) has been sucked in for changing away from their beloved frictionless pips! :roll:
