Comment A: the sheetrocker sure as heck doesn't wait for boards to dry. I THINK they dont shrink too much on length. And generally the anchor screws are about 12" apart in the center and 6" on the edges. While standard construction shrinks, it doesn't seem to affect drywall, but I'm NOT a sheetrocker. An inch of shrink spread over 8 ft is tiny, fastener wise.
Comment B: the 2 x6 requirement is for added fiberlass insulaton between studs. doesn't apply here because you have more structure than required.
