The following message from Ken Sorenson speaks for the Rules Committee
and the rest of the contest commitee on the subject of contest reports
from Logan. Please especially note that NO ONE from SSA censored the
previously posted reports.

Ken's message:
Many of us enjoy following contests by reading the contest reports
posted on the SSA website. Contest organizers are encouraged to post
these daily reports and are responsible for selecting the reporters
and posting the reports. There has never been any structure within the
SSA to "manage" the reporters or the reporting -- please remember that
the SSA management of contests is done entirely by a small group of
dedicated volunteers, all of whom already have plenty to do without
trying to manage contest reporters and reporting.
The contest organizers at the recent and ongoing Logan, UT contests
have apparently elected to change reporters at the contest, which is
within their authority to do. Frank Paynter's unofficial reports will
continue to be available at
www.soaringcafe.com. Please note that
unofficial reports have been available previously from other reporters
on personal blogs and other websites for this and other contests.
We apologize for any inconvenience the change in contest reporting at
Logan has caused and hope everyone will continue to enjoy following
the progress of the ongoing 15M Nationals on the SSA website and
elsewhere.
Ken Sorenson
SSA Contest Committee Chairman
