It should have minimize bandwidth, minimize cpu, minimize storage
levels of service to allow different levels of users to have
different possible impact on the machine. (Ie. : local, paying,
regional, unknown, domain, etc.)
This is the area of policy, for which there are no general purpose
solutions that I know of. I see a need for a general purpose module
that would accept authorization requests from various end-user
services (remailing, timestamping, storage, etc.) and return yes or
no. If money is part of the policy, this is the place to implement
it.
That said, I don't think the lack of a policy engine prevents a
cypherware distribution from happening.
