Why do all this? There already exists a Generic Security System API, GSSAPI, which is an Internet standard (or there is at least an Internet Draft -- I'm not sure what the current status is right now, and given that the IETF is going on this week, it's status may change).

Ah, I knew of the GSSAPI's existence but hadn't realized that its scope included what I wanted. I'll read the draft on the internic and see if it does what I want. If so, the next logical step is to wrap RSAREF in it and to make a PGPish-wraparound. I'd certainly be up to the former; Would anybody else be interested in ponying up their time and effort for the PGP instance?
