What's the 'security structure' of NCSC-TG-005 you like? Skimming
through the documents on

  http://www.radium.ncsc.mil/tpep/library/rainbow/

I don't even begin to see how this relates to OpenBSD in practice (where
it matches, what is different). Is it just me, or is this vague? I've
read dry RFCs before, but this is something else. Someone convince me
that C2 isn't just a buzz word :)
