[CQ-Contest] New log deadline for ARRL contests?

The reason I rarely do that is because preparing the log is a tedious and
time consuming process which is about the last thing I would want to do
right after opeating a (long) contest.  I might do it after a Sprint, but
getting a big log with lots of QSOs ready is another matter.  Making a big
log presentable takes time and clarity.

If you are suggesting not cleaning up the log, that is a different topic.
