Note the qualifier I put in about the tank's gear level. I would say 600dps isn't bad for someone in instance blues who isn't specced for DPS. It should obviously go up when they get epic DPS plate.
The second shout isn't necessarily a bad thing, I hear rogues like battle shout.
I'm not satisfied that retribution paladins can do serious raid DPS at this time, so I wouldn't start pointing them out as better than protection warriors strapping on DPS gear, until there's good solid proof on the subject. Also, my point is not to say that protection warrior DPS is greater than other classes' DPS, but that they can do a decent amount of DPS if they work it.
