Oh, i agree. Security of 2.6 and the agenda are probably just fine, but we've had no independent verification of that security, and revelations of the agenda, and being a paranoid cypherpunk who missed woodstock (sorry couldn't resist), that is an issure that very much concerns me. To push an UNTESTED product with an unknown background forceably to replace something we can trust is something I consider to be sinister. The whole fiasco, from the day the new keyserver restrictions were announced, to the half-hearted neta announcement, to this new one, no not show a program that has been fully tests.
