> I'm writing the "Encryption and SSL" chapter for the Netscape products, and
> I'm finishing it up with a "Further reading" section that lists
> crypto-related books, web sites, and newsgroups. I was thinking of including

> Any strong opinions either way?

> As I see it, the downside is a possible increase in confused people
> (specifically on the mailing list--not in general from my writing) and a
> decrease in the ever-controversial signal-to-noise ratio. The upside is that
> new people might come to the list and be enlightened further on the
> reasonableness of privacy.
> 
> And speaking pragmatically, I can't imagine that too many people would take
> the time to: 
>         1.  read the docs
>         2.  join the mailing list
>         3.  post ill-considered messages
> 
> (As a side note, if anyone ever has any feedback about security coverage in
> Netscape documentation, send it my way.)
