Well, we could also say RFC1918, couldnŽt we ;-?

Well, there are several issues, none of them really bad, but if you
want a clean setup..:
- DNS, youŽll have to set up split DNS for your RFC1918- and external
IPs
- in Real Life, you sometimes _will_ have to debug from the outside of
your network
- in Real Life, someone else _will_ debug from the outside (and quite
probably complain about the RFC1918-IPs or simply be fed up)
cheers,
