I've been mad curious what your tak on the Remy paper was ever since I read it myself. Because while I didn't spot any obvious bogons, you know the domain far better than I do. The only thing about their methods that troubles me is a suspicion that the generated algorithms might be overspecialized - that is, very vulnerable to small changes in traffic statistics. -- Eric S.
