Sure. No different than W6-California with all its sections.

And we wait upon the RAC and ARRL. I need those abbreviations, but I'm not
driving the bus.
Is Ontario going to remain VE3? Or what? If I try to second guess, I'll bet
I'm wrong.

Another thing to remember is that not only do we have different "brands" of
software, we have different versions within a brand. A mistake or change or
implementation is forever. Someone will be using an outdated version.

As soon as we have enough to make a decision. Imagine the effects if I
unilaterally decide NON, EON, WON, and SON, but they decide something else,
later.
Actually those aren't too bad! It will wreck the preferred VE1, VE2 mults.
Maybe. Sorta.
But I have a lot of software to rewrite and databases to change - I'd love
for them to make a quick decision. There are a lot of other contests who
have to be chomping at the bit about this also.
If this stretches on too much longer, we'll end up keeping it the same for
now.
