A local paper in Miami today, 8/9/05, reported that "The FAA announced last month that it is issuing a notice of proposed rulemaking, but only for visual, line-of-sight operated UAVs that fly outside of commercial areas below 400 feet. The rules are not expected to be in effect until 2008."

Does anyone know anything about this? Would the rules as now contemplated affect RC aircraft and if so, how so? I read Dave Brown's recent comments in Model Aviation about altitude restrictions in general but wondered if any other information is available?
