The above M1200 has a total impulse of 5122.6 Ns - 2.6 Ns above the M cutoff line and a 0.05% M. It'll be classified as an M until March 21, 2010 ( 1 year from first testing date), then classified again to ensure that it doesn't lose potency - and become a 100% L - after a year on the shelf. If it really is an M, then it's a perfect motor for getting an L3 cert with the smallest / lightest built rocket possible. If not, then it's prefect for setting an L altitude record.

They'll do more testing with new loads in the above casings on the 25th. Stay tuned.

I think it's pretty amazing that they can certify 13 new HPR reloads at once. We low-power folks are lucky to get a handful a year - both the new G80T and F32T together is amazing - and such a new selection is pretty cool. i think this puts the total certified list up to 564. 550 as of the list in Sport Rocketry, plus the F32T and these 13.
