Hi Kevin,

I think you have raised a very good question. This is something that I
would like to discuss with Eran 'off-line' before coming back to the
list with a summary of ideas. I think in this case it will be the most
productive course of action, as the discussion could be quite
far-ranging.

Cheers,
Dan.
