         I haven't read the encryption spec, but the Signature spec is 
crap.  Everyone who I know that does crypto professionally thinks it's a 
complete cop-out to solving the problem -especially since it really doesn't 
solve it :(.

         I'll repeat my previous comment - until we know what people want 
encryption in AW for - technical discussions are pretty pointless.
