Over the last year Marcus and me discussed ideas on how to make
encryption easier for non-crypto geeks.
We prepared a short paper...

Hi,
I read this briefly, and I'd actually like to read it over later and maybe
contribute some ideas. The lack of people caring about cryptography is
quite apparent, and may be solved with some good ideas of making things less
