"Perry E. Metzger" <perry@imsi.com>:
I'm thinking (again) about setting up a specialized mailing list for discussing cryptography...
While I agree with Perry's implication that the CP list does tend to go off track rather often, it _was_ set up specifically to bring together the social and technical aspects of cryptography, and does generate useful discussion on occasion ;-]
If you want to discuss only cryptography, there's always sci.crypt...
Snicker, snicker. What planet are *you* living on? :-) The only reason it's sci._crypt_ is because that's what 90% of the flame-fests get started on. I'd guesstimate that only 1 posting in 100 is actually about crypto, or some directly crypto-related matter. The rest of it is S*****light vs. The World name-calling and character assassinations.
