I would like to avoid a break in compatability if possible, and it seems that we are very close to achieving this. Perhaps allowing 0.4 to accept connections from 0.3 nodes if a configuration parameter is set to true, and setting this to true by default in 0.4, but to false by default in 0.5. On that subject, is there really any advantage of using this PK mechanism over the current key-exchange algorithm? Ian. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
