more or less, yes.

we'll be having a lecture that'll talk about these issues in greater depth
- look at the next SiL lecture on haifux, at
http://www.haifux.org/lectures/68/ (it's a re-run of an old lecture,
hence the low number). you can also read the tutorial that lecture is
based on - there's a link at the 'references' slide of that lecture.
