I can't speak for Ward directly, but as the author of the last two
10 Meter Contest results articles, I can tell you that:
(a) What I submitted was heavily edited for space constraints (and
unfortunately for 2007 that editing introduced a typo in one contester's
name that was not a typo in my original manuscript). My original article
submission is what has been published as the Web Report, and I think
that's generally true for the other contests.
(b) The QST Results, Printable Line Scores, Web Report, LCRs, and contest
records can become available on the web site at different times. For
the 2007 10 Meter Contest, those items separately appeared online over
about a two week period of time before they were all available.
(c) In the Web Report version of the article, there will be links to the
Top Ten boxes, Region boxes, Club boxes, etc. on the right-hand side of
the screen. We'll have to wait for the Web Report for the 2008 ARRL
DX Phone contest to be available.
