The biggest problem I have with this is that this is the third, fourth, or fifth posting of Ross Anderson's piece to this list (maybe I'm counting one or more posts to Cyberia-l). (And others commented on the "Europeans to ban strong crypto" theme about a week ago.) I urge people to read what's on the list and not repost things which have already appeared. If they don't have time to read all of the messages on the list, which is understandable, then they need to be even more careful in posting things. Not to pick on Peter Trei, as this happens all the time, whenever a hot issue appears. With 1000 people on the list, repeated postings and cross-posting spams are getting out of hand. --Tim May ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.
