One of the questions that I have been raising is trust and how to
ensure that that it is not misplaced or eroded over time. Which
leads me to my question for the list: I can see easily how to do
split key for 2 out of x for key recovery, but I can't seem to
find a reference to the 3 out of x problem.
In case I have not been clear enough, it is commonly known that
it is harder to get collusion when three people need to act
together than when there are just two. For most encryption 2 out
x is just fine, but some things need a higher level of security
than 2 out of x can provide.

I can't speak much about them other than when I last tested them, they
were able to split and reassemble a few test cases.
