Tonno,
I, too, have had several correspondences with the CQWW
committee and/or log checking folks. Each of the
responses I received was courteous and enlightening.
The more I learned (directly from them and not from
speculation on the reflector), the more I realized
these guys know what the hell they are doing. The
techniques are logical and well constructed. And,
might I add, apparently still very closely scrutinized
by humans.
It's only too bad that they haven't figured out a way
to make a public document describing some of their
techniques without giving away their, excuse the
term, "secrets". They understandably want to avoid
folks attempting to "wash" their logs based on the
criteria.
