Congrats!

I believe we mostly agreed that it didn't so much matter which cipher is
chosen for 0.x since it will be replaced by AES anyway. Just as long as
the production version of Freenet only supports one cipher. 

If the cipher used now happens to be selected as the AES, no additional
work would be needed. Twofish is at least in the running for AES. Blowfish
is not. (Though my money is on Rijndael winning AES. It appears to be the
best choice, perhaps with a few more rounds added).

Twofish sounds good.
