Halvar,

I think requests not to speculate are like Cisco tearing pages from
Black Hat Briefings slide books, or Barbra Streisand suing the
California Coastal Records Project for imaging her home. They invite
the very attention they seek to avoid.

Those of us outside the research community who have to advise
management cannot tell our executives "trust Dan." We have to be able
to weigh costs vs benefits, implementation details, and the like. I'm
glad people here and elsewhere have tried to figure this out, since it
gives details to guide my recommendations.

Thank you,

Richard
