I view EKMI as using the best tools the cryptographic community has to offer to solve specific business problems. As I stated in an earlier e-mail, one man's meat is another man's poison. What you see as additional layer of complexity is viewed as a layer of simplification by some people - no different from how one might view a self-starter in an automobile, as a layer of complexity over a crank-starter. > That's an interesting presumption that you're making -- are you familiar

To the extent that anyone can claim familiarity with something as fickle and temporal as the needs of an audience, I believe I do (for the moment). I recognize that I cannot please everyone in any audience, and must therefore, do/say what what I believe is right for my customers. Only time will tell if I got it right - temporarily.
