Re: Issue ads -- proposed regulations

In response to Edward Still's question:

The FEC's website does not put these kinds of items in a location that anyone
in the non-specialized public could be expected to find.  Specifically, the
draft regs are not in the "proposed regs" section of the site.  
Rather, they are a "commission agenda" document for today's meeting, at 

http://www.fec.gov/agenda/agenda20020801.html 

It would definitely help, for many situations, if the commission put a search
engine on its website.

I have seen a couple of articles about the
FEC's release of the draft
regulations on "issue ads" but have not been
able to find them.  The FEC
web site does not seem to have them.  Are the
draft regs available
online?
