I hope it holds up (no paper yet, for example): there is a lot of grumbling in the paleo-dna community about methods and techniques and science by press conference. As one of them put it, "BREAKING: ancient DNA confirms Plantagenet Life Metabolised Arsenic."

On an unrelated note, hopefully this will also be true...

Oh? Speak to me of DNA grumbling. See above to hawkwing_lb: I do not want this to be wishful thinking on anyone's part, including mine.

I haven't found a highly specific post yet; this is a light summary of the concerns. The main problem is confirming that the mitochondrial DNA is unique, and that the DNA wasn't contaminated.
