The DXCC Desk have chosen to thumb their noses at the DXCC rules
and announced four (4) new ones effective 10/10/10. See:
http://www.arrl.org/news/dissolution-of-netherlands-antilles-creates-four-new-dxcc-entities
Since the rules no longer seem to apply, what will be the next
Baldwin's Reef? Will we see more out of country operations
like those of Romeo and Don Miller?

Well, it's official, the Department of State has only listed
St. Maarten and Curacao as Dependencies and Areas of Special
Sovereignty.
Since the separation between Bonaire and Saba is less than the
required 800 km when calculated using the more accurate WGS84
standard, the BES Islands *should* qualify as a *one* entity.
The bed has been made ... if ARRL follow the rules, there
will be *three* new ones. We'll see how important the rules
are.
