Great question! I've looked over the NCAA website and I can't find a clear answer.
Who out there knows what is the 2006 Div 2 recruiting timeline???????

All I can say is that there were loads of Division II teams at Jupiter this past weekend
As usual the NCAA reading is quite ambiguous--they only talk about Division II dead periods prior to the signing periods

My understanding is the following:
The below dead and quiet periods are designed so D1 -D# and NAIA would have an equal chance to see and sign kids equally as D1
Please check the information for yourself as I may be interpreting them wrong also. I was told that thie below applies to D1.
(d) November 7-10, 2005: Dead Period
(e) November 11, 2005, through February 28, 2006, Quiet Period
[except for (1) below]:
(1) January 5 (12:01 a.m.) through January 9, 2006, (12:01 a.m.): Dead Period
(f) March 1 through July 31, 2006, Contact/Evaluation Period
[except for (1) below]:
(1) April 10-13, 2006: Dead Period

I think you are right, teh quiet an dead only applies to D1 and was imposed to give d2,d3 equal opportunities.
Here is what I found;

I can say this, DIII does not have any dead periods, and while I'm out recruiting I always see DII's. I played at a DII and their rules are completely separate from DI, and DIII. Did you know at DII, you can play professional ball, and as long as you have not signed with an agent can come back and play DII ball?? interesting fact I would say! It just goes to show how screwed up the NCAA rules are :-)
