[CQ-Contest] Public access to logs

[VE5ZX]

> CQ announced their policy of open logs in the rules for the 2006 CQWW as I 
> recall...

In 2006 the rules read

5. We want your electronic log. The Committee requires an electronic log for 
any possible high-scoring log. By submitting a potential high-scoring log to 
the CQ WW Contest, the entrant agrees to have the log open to the public.

In 2007 there was a small change

4. We want your electronic log. The Committee requires an electronic log for 
any possible high-scoring log. By submitting a log to the CQ WW Contest, the 
entrant agrees to have the log open to the public. If possible, we would 
appreciate complete frequencies in the log.

It is great that the CQWW took the bold move to have open contest logs! 
Adjudication transparency is a good thing! Mark these words -- eventually 
the ARRL will adopt an open log policy too.
