fair enough -- however, could you tell me if these comments come after
having read http://apache.org/dev/crypto.html? I was kind of hoping
that page comes close to providing the background and list of what
steps must be taken. I guess I think a rev of the current
cryppto.html page + a rev of this FAQ should be very close to the
needed docs. Agree?
That clarified things quite nicely, I somehow missed that page...
FWIW, I suggest putting the FAQ right at the bottom of that page, so
it's impossible to get the whole picture.
