On re-reading the above message, I apologise if the language I used was provocative. However, the points I made are nevertheless valid in my opinion. Proposing cutting off maintenance of the only maintained route to decrypt certain data is provocative, of course. ;-) As I observed, it is not necessary to cut off maintained ability to decrypt historical data (surely a valid real world use case) in order to prevent users from encrypting new data with legacy standards. -- Mark Rousell
