If I'm not mistaken, 2006-08-16 would have been some
time before CQ WW published the logs of every single
entrant from 2006. Like a little over a year.
According to http://www.arrl.org/?artid=7109 N7NG
left the ARRL as of 2007-01-16. This is a bit more than
a half a year before CQ WW first published logs.
Both the rule change & whatever N7NG might have said
were well before the publishing of the logs of every single
entrant of the most popular radiosporting event.
The context in which the rule change was made was
_not_ the publishing of so many logs - including quite a
few that folks might want to claim credit for contacting -
but some far fewer number (something like several
thousandths) of DXpedition logs that went beyond what
was necessary for one to establish that they were in the
log for a given band/mode.
And unless N7NG was asked specifically about the
publishing of every single log submitted for CQ WW,
then his answer appears to be have taken quite some
ways out of context.
