thanks for the detailed explanation, looking forward to taking the
kraken for a spin!

guessing by some posts on the mailing list, rainbow table generation is
still ongoing and the berlin tables are just a subset of the entire a5/1
key space? i read somewhere that the current set of tables can only
crack 22% of all sessions, is this due to the amount of tables that have
been generated so far?
