Seems sufficient for me.

For playing times, you can add TimeControl tag

for a 5'+5" game:

TimeControl "300+5"

Since no one seems to have mentioned it and it might be somewhat relevant, marcelk on FICS has finally released his 100 million game collection here: http://marcelk.net/logics/

Thank you Vlad, Thank you, Marcel. I only downloaded two recent
parts, Sep and Oct 2009 for analysis. Because I have fully used
my monthly quota.

2009_10 contains 1.61m+ games.

21k games: 0 - 6 moves : deleted
3 k games : dupes : deleted

Remaining: 1.59m games

More later.
