I'm told there were significant timing/results issues at the triathalon World Champs in Vancouver- does anyone know what the issues were, and which transponders were involved?

Thanks,
+M

Suunto timing (??)

Couldn't find too many details, except for 2500 times missed:

Presumably the person who wrote this press release is now looking for a new job

Like MOUSE, I would be very interested in additional technical details on the failure if anybody on the forum knows more. Sounds like the whole event was a total disaster due to terrible weather and organizational problems.
