John, I am by no means an expert or fully up to speed, but here is what I believe to be the most recent info:
*TREC is enforcing the requirement as if E&O is what is required by the law while waiting for a clarification from the AG as to what the heck the legislators meant. (you would think they would have gotten the wording right since it was a insuranze guy that slipped the amendment in at the last minute.)
*Barry is trying to get us off our duffs to go voice our opinion at an up coming TREC meeting.
*Technically, you are not required to have insuranze until you renew, not on Sept. 1st unless that is when you have to renew your license.
*There are lots of insuranze companies lined up waiting to take your money
