Nope... Paul should not waste time on Contest features because they require constant attention to changes. Even casual contesters should consider a free contest program, they are so much better suited. I use N1MM. It gets pretty involved if you want to use all the features... but you don't

They are not asking for a contest style program that would require constant changes due to rule changes ect... They are asking for a way to export a file in Cabrillo format. True this is generally used in contests, However I don't believe this would require updates like you say. This could

One of the problems is that you then have to have a way to specify the contest-specific header and possibly deal with different data in the file depending on the contest. I normally use the N1MM contest logger for contesting, but there have been a few times when I hadn't intended to

Playing devils advocate here... This is a copy of the header section of one of my recent Cabrillo files. The required header labels and values are contest specific. Everything needs to be formatted exactly as the contest sponsor’s robot wants it or it will reject. ARRL-SECTION: SNJ

Brian, Not all Cabrillos are created equal. With the recent emergence of Cabrillo v3.0, about 1/3 of contest sponsors now require v3.0, whereas the remainder still use submissions based on the v2.x format. Implementing a Cabrillo export would not be one-time-and-done effort. My vote is for Paul
