Roy,

Thanks for reminding us to answer your question. The hard problem is
to decide *what* to audit, and given the variety of choices it would
be difficult for us to say what you should audit. This varies from
customer to customer. A general auditing mechanism that can
potentially capture all customer requirements is unlikely to be clean
or efficient. This is why we cannot advise you more closely. We
would nevertheless interested in any results you might obtain from
your project.

Best regards,

Li
