Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group "three landings within the preceding 90 days"

Can anyone help me with this, please?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
§ 61.57   Recent flight experience: Pilot in command.

(a) General experience.
(1) Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this section, no person may act as a pilot in command
    of an aircraft carrying passengers or of an aircraft certificated for more than one pilot
    flight crewmember unless that person has made at least three takeoffs and three landings
    within the preceding 90 days, and—

(i) The person acted as the sole manipulator of the flight controls; and

(ii) The required takeoffs and landings were performed in an aircraft of the same category,
     class, and type (if a type rating is required), and,
     if the aircraft to be flown is an airplane with a tailwheel,
     the takeoffs and landings must have been made to a full stop in an airplane with a tailwheel.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notice that the tailwheel flyer needs to do his landings to a full stop.....

My problem is that somewhere I got the idea that PPC and WSC also require landings to full stop.
Is that correct?.... documented anywhere?....  or merely hearsay?


Thanks,
Mike
