Regardless of the outcome, I just want to commend whoever wrote 
the rejection text* on doing such a clear and comprehensive job. 
I'm sure it must be disappointing for a DIP author to have it 
rejected, but detailed, constructive criticism like this would - 
for me at least - make the experience worthwhile and encourage 
further contributions of higher quality.

* I see dicebot committed, but I'm presuming Walter &| Andrei had 
a lot of input and I think i detect recent exposure to the 
academic review process...
