Charlie and I just had our second meeting with the wardens, which was exactly how the first one should have gone. They invited us to take a seat and have a reasonable, adult conversation about the article, and the second warden (not the one we encountered before) gave a very polite and well argued reasoning for us not publishing.

I just thought that it would be rude not to acknowledge what has now rightly happened, and that the situation is resolved.
