Just did a quick search and couldn't find if this had been posted; it is the finer details on the preliminary tournament for "Code B" participants to qualify for Code A. It has a few details such as times/dates as well as mentioning it taking the top "ladder players" to determine Code B. This is also where the top 4 "foreigner friendly" spots come into play.
Foreigner Spots:

There is also a mention of a team house to encourage foreigners to participate in GSL and not worry about accommodation..
Again sorry if this has been posted already.

Code A Preliminary AnnouncementViews: 2,503| Posted Date: 2011.01.06 13:51:37
Hello,
The GSL Tour in 2011 is divided into Code S and Code A
As open seasons are over, those of you who have not yet acquired Code S and Code A need to participate in Code A preliminary in order to compete in GSL.
Note the following.
Code S : Top 32 players in the league.
Code A : Next best 32 players.
Code B : Top ladder players who are given the right to play in Code A preliminary.
Interchange between Code A and Code S = Up & Down match
Interchange between Code A and Code B = Code A Preliminary
Code A Preliminary Registration Date : January 17th 00:00(KST) ~ January 22nd 24:00(KST)
Code A Preliminary Date : January 30th(Sunday)
Location : TechnoMart, Sindorim, Seoul, Korea
Format : Full tournament, best of 3
Maps : 1st set : Xel`Naga Caverns / 2nd set : Metalopolis / 3rd set : Shakuras Plateau
We want as many foreign players participating in GSL as possible.
However, in previous season we noted that many players had difficulty finding place to stay, and therefore we are providing team house from this season.
At the moment the players can only sleep at the house but once we have 4 seeded foreigners invited we will also provide computers to practice(The exact date of when the PCs will be available is undecided)
Note that the team house can only hold up to 8~10 people. If you wish to stay at the team house, you need to send a) copy of your plane ticket to Seoul b) copy of your passport to gsl@gomtv.com
The first 8~10 people who sends those copies will be accepted to stay at the house. Make sure you send them after the registration begins(Jan 17th 00:00). If you send them before appointed date and time it will not be accepted.
Thank You

Edit 2: Does that mean since HuK is a top ladder player he would qualify for a spot in the preliminaries without having to take up one of the 4 seeded foreigner spots?
