It is worth noting that the Kerberos crypto primitives were extracted
from the Kerberos protocol in RFC 3961 with the hope that they would be
reused in additional protocols.  The belief that that there are fewer
cryptographers in the world than network security protocol developers
and the cryptographer's efforts should not be re-invented for each
network security protocol.

Additional encryption and checksum specifications have and can be
published in the framework of RFC 3961 without altering 3961.
