Okay, here is the first version of
http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/wiki/Keywords .  Feel free to improve
it!

integrity: this issue could lead to the unintended alteration of data
durability: this issue could lead to the unintended loss of data
confidentiality: this issue could lead to the unintended disclosure of
user data (it is unclear whether this includes "traffic analysis"
information such as how many files of what size you access at what
times, the shape of your directory graph, the fact that you run a
Tahoe-LAFS client or storage server, etc. Perhaps those issues should
be labelled privacy instead.)
availability: this issue could lead to a temporary condition of being
unable to read or write to the filesystem
reliability: this issue could lead to unpredictable failure of functionality
security: ???

Regards,

Zooko
