I don't agree with Les.
Panels are instructed to consider *any* sort of published output, and this
would consider something that had only ever appeared on an IR, or on a web
page; indeed, statistics from the last RAE show that a small proportion of
the items examined by the panels were in web page form only. However, if
you want to impress the RAE panel, the item should have been through a
proper refereeing process.
