that's a tough one.  do you have a compelling reason to have it on- 
line that helps you do your real mission or is this just "because it  
ought to be public"?

my guess is politicos probably are going after that information, so it  
isn't like if we don't do it it won't get done.  $0.02, but I don't  
know the current state of the art on this particular issue, so it's  
just a guess.
