Well, personally I'm miffed about the banning of ski hosting - where they are very careful not to give instruction but it's great to have someone take you round and book restaurants etc.
Having said that, I know of one large French ski area that seems OK with it but I won't say which one it is... :-)
Not that I don't agree with the higher standards required - in other alpine countries you see a lot of anglo-saxon "instructors" who clearly wouldn't be able to pass the tests.
