I thought I'd covered the bases fairly well, but I'll make sure I do a more thorough job in future of enumerating the issues involved. Personally, mentioning that there aren't any DFSG issues noticable is useful, because it means that part of the necessary conditions are satisfied. I can see, though, that only saying "there are no DFSG problems" only gives the OP half the story. - Matt
