Hi Dr. Henson,

Thanks. I'm not sure how I mssed it. Its great that the project has an
authenticated encryption scheme available.

Will OpenSSL be doing anything with CCM? On occassion, I'll get a
request for CCM (presumably because its another NIST approved authenc
mode).

Personally, I would prefer Bellare, Rogaways, and Wagner's EAX mode
over CCM. But I guess Rogaway and Wagner user up all their NIST creds
with CTR mode.
