Great! Best that you just send the files to us... to the Rivet 
development list rather than me personally, please (also for any 
requests like this.)

To avoid excessive iteration, can you first double-check to ensure that 
the code style, use of histograms, etc. are all in line with the 
existing analyses and code guidelines, so that we don't have to spend a 
lot of time reworking the analysis code. Also, please make sure that all 
histograms and event counters are implemented using the event weight 
rather than 1.0 -- we've been bitten by that before!

I assume that you have checked these analyses internally and are happy 
that they are a faithful implementation of the data analyses and 
reproduce your published MC lines within expected statistical limits?

Thanks again,
Andy
