Well, its impossible to prove a negative, so I don't think that humanity
will ever *know* that they are true wolflings - but as Alberto noted, I
think that it is clear to any reader that that is the case.

I completely disagree, I think that there is definitely plenty of scope to
tell other stories. I agree that the "Streaker" thread is pretty much
done, but a side story set in the same universe, such as _Uplift War_ or
_Brightness Reef_ would still very viable.
Besides, don't you want to find out what happens to the Captain's Skiff? ;-)
