Re: comments wanted on gbde

I can see no faults in gbde other than that it is too clever by 
half. The implementor imagined various vaguely imagined 
complicated attacks, and put in all sorts of overly clever 
stuff to defeat them.

Let us stick with the threat model where the bad guys kick down 
your door and yank your computer off your desk.   If your 
cleaning lady is out to get you, it is much easier to create 
software that creates a false and misleading sense of security, 
than software that stops her.
