CabrilloFormat 2, 3, 4 and 5 name the NAQP, NA Sprint, Sweepstakes and
section-and-serial lines. A file asking for one of those got the default
line; it now gets the layout, ported from CabrilloString2 and
CabrilloString4 in N1MM's Contact.cs, in N1MM's columns.
The exchange the layouts split into columns is built from the boxes the
file defines, in the order it defines them. N1MM builds it from the
section box alone, which writes only half of a two-box exchange such as
NAQP's name and state.
Format 6, the ARRL RTTY Roundup line, is still not read. No published
.udc file asks for it, because the Roundup has a contest class of its
own.
ExchangeSlots.ValueOf moves to Nonemm.Contests as QsoExchange.ValueOf,
so the contest code can read a contact through its exchange boxes
without a second copy of that switch.

`CabrilloString` names a field and a column width in turn. The line it makes
follows N1MM: the operator's callsign in the first 13 columns, then every
column padded to its width with one space after it, and a value longer than its
column cut rather than pushed sideways. The cut is new for every contest, not
just the user-defined ones — the columns are the sponsor's, not ours.
`CabrilloVersion` is read too, so a contest whose sponsor still asks for 2.0
gets it in the header.
A contest that lays out its own line can put the transmitter column where it
wants it, or leave it out, so the writer no longer adds one at the end.

Both are in the station's log and neither could be opened. The rules are
written from the published ones and checked by replaying the log.
YOTA scores a contact by the age the other operator sends: 13 points down to 10
for anyone 25 or under, whatever the continent, and 1 point or 3 for everyone
else. Every age worked on a band is a multiplier. The 2024, 2025 and 2026 logs
come out to the contact.
OK/OM DX is the first contest whose exchange differs by the other station's
country: a county from OK and OM stations, a serial number from everyone else,
in the two columns N1MM keeps them in, and `SkipsField` walks the entry window
past the box that does not apply. Points depend on which side the operator is
on, and Czechia and Slovakia count as the two countries they are. The 2023 log
comes out to the contact.
The Cabrillo exchange now gets the entry, because YOTA sends an age that only
the contest setup knows.
Two differences are left in the log, both from the .udc files the operator
used: their YOTA file only lists ages 7 to 25, so a younger operator scored as
an adult, and one OK/OM log was made with the file for stations outside OK and
OM while signing an OM call.

Two pieces of work on the scoring engine.
The .udc reader now takes N1MM's published scoring vocabulary: the full
PointsPerContact condition set, the PointsMultBy family, PowerMult, BonusPoints,
the multiplier sources and the settings that say which stations bring a
multiplier in. MultMult is a weight rather than a switch, as in N1MM's
ComputeScore. The entry categories and the sent exchange reach the rules in a
new ContestEntry, so a contest can score by the power category it is entered in
or by what this station sends.
Then every contest in a real N1MM log was scored again from these rules and
compared with the points and multiplier flags N1MM wrote. That found five bugs:
ARRL DX and IARU read the exchange from the wrong column, a stored " " was read
as a value rather than as empty, CQ WW RTTY's own Canadian area names were not
counted, a maritime mobile scored nothing, and a contact in a mode the contest
does not run scored as if it were in the contest.
docs/n1mm-interop.md has the check and what still differs.

The box names in EntryWindowInfo are N1MM's LogItem.LogItemNameType members.
We read four of them under names that are not in that enum, so a file naming
its section box SectionText got no section box at all, and a zone or a power
box was dropped whatever it was called.
SectionText, CQZoneText and PowerText are now read. SectText stays as well: it
is not one of N1MM's names but files in the wild use it.

ARRL DX, IARU HF, Sweepstakes, RTTY Roundup, NAQP and general logging join
CQ WW and CQ WPX. The Cabrillo QSO line is now built column by column by the
contest, because Sweepstakes puts the callsign after the serial number where
everyone else puts it first.
User-defined contests read the subset of N1MM's .udc settings that covers the
exchange, the dupe rule, points and up to three multipliers.
