If the dlm is misused, some part of that may fall in my lap, if only so far as having to debug problems to distinguish between dlm bugs or md-cluster bugs. This has been learned the hard way. I have yet to find time to look up the previous review discussion. I will be more than happy if I find the dlm usage has already been thoroughly reviewed. > Also a slightly less adversarial tone would make me feel more > comfortable, though maybe I'm misreading your intent.
