Question Weapon Swing Timer, Classic?

I was looking at another classic eq site and noticed a couple lines...
Does anyone know anything about this? Or can anyone remember classic live?

Quote:
Fix: Only NPCs and hybrid PC classes are awarded with reserved melee attacks during channeling; casters and priests will now need to time their spells between melee attacks
Fix: Attack timers are now fully reset when swapping weapons
This would be a big change for casters/priests that currently, on p99 they automatically swing their weapon after a cast, so long as the cast time is greater than the swing delay.

The 2nd line would affect classes that weapon swap. For example this would kill that monk weapon swap dps meta. Was that even classic?

Anyone know anything about this stuff?
