I've only just re-started VHF contesting (in a small way) after
many years inactivity. This is an interesting idea. Some points
from the VHF point of view.

1. Full log publication would give a good insight into activity and
    encourage people to look for stations in areas where they didn't
    think there was any activity.
2. Of course, don't publish full logs until after adjudication or final
    submission date.
3. Consider fixed stations who are, for whatever reason, "particulars
    withheld", publishing the full locator may be seen as a big clue as to their
    location.
4. The full logs mean that everybody, not just the big guns, can have
a database of
    calls and locations and "rectify" any location transcription
    errors. [Used to do this in the 1970's].
5. Make the copyright position clear.
