It looks like there will be a change.  At this point it is probably too
early to know exactly what will happen.  Also there is one more island
involved - St. Maarten (the Dutch side) - PJ7.

The thing is that only two of the islands are expected to obtain
independence.  They are Curacao (PJ2) and St. Maarten (PJ7).  The remaining
islands (Bonaire-PJ4, St. Eustatius-PJ5 and Saba-PJ6) are asking for some
kind of special status within the Netherlands.  I read this to say status
quo.

As I said it is a little early to know exactly what will happen, but one
that DXers and Contesters will surly want to keep a close eye on.

Was doing some caribbean trade research, when I came across an article
stating that the Netherland Antilles will be officially dissolved in July
2007.

Does this mean that Bonaire, Curacao, Sint Eustatius, and Saba will all be
new entities in 2007?  Meaning very ripe contest locations?
