Subject: Assaulting from a moving vehicle, rules clarification please

I just read the July 5th FAQ that discusses models with Fleet and assaulting from transports that moved earier that turn. How does this affect models being able to assault after their transport moved that turn and they disembark? I play orks and use open-topped transports, I know they can assault on a turn they disembark and can disembark on any point of the hull, but can they disembark and assault on a turn their transport moves? Can they disembark, run and assault in the same turn? How does Waaagh! affect this since it grants Fleet for a turn?
Basically: Battlewagon (open topped) moves 13" (red paint), orks disembark within 2" of any point on the hull, Orks assault 6"- LEGAL?
-or-
Battlewagon (open topped) moves 13" (red paint), orks disembark within 2" of any point on the hull, Orks Waagh! (gain Fleet) and run D6", Orks assault 6"- LEGAL?

The Fleet clarification has no effect on open-topped transports, since disembarking units have always been able to assault from them after the transport moved.
So yes, both of your examples are legal.

You can only assault out of a vehicle if:
A: The Unit disembarked before the vehicle moved.
or
B: the vehicle moved but was open topped.
or
C: The vehicle moved but has the assault ramps (Or assault vehicle rule)
You can run and assault if your unit has the Fleet USR. Including running after disembarking from A,B, or C above.
#1 and #2 would be correct in that situation you outlined above.
