Dear David,
I dont have really anything against open logs and but if you see contesters
is asking questions then I dont think its right way to ask them question
I think that will be better if CC answer the questions once and finish it
You say:
Q: Why does one care if his or her log is made public?
Why CC like to make logs public?
Q: What is there in one's log that one would want to hide?
What CC wil find hiden in the log if will make it public?
Q: What is one afraid of?
Do I need to afraid if my log is public?
Q: Why would one choose to not operate a contest that would make one's
log
public?
Why?
Q: What difference does it make?
What???
I think if CC will answer all questions below openly then people will not
afraid atall
Speculation about public log is going only because CC is not answers
questions and thats it and with my opinion answers is quite simple
