Note that the Arbitor has no duty to publish/report the CFJ after a decision is made, so the SHALL has no real meaning there - that's wholly unofficial duty of the CotC. It also means (in practical terms, whomever does it), publishing the final case log would need to wait a full week for comments. Since sometimes that "final" case log is what triggers appeals, waiting a full week for that seems kind of harmful? -G.
