Can we use some other term, PLEASE?

The tools we used to do this are at https://github.com/openssl/too...

please contact license@openssl.org so we can make sure we handle your contributions properly.

CFRG meeting. Mixing post-QC RNG into the TLS pre-master secret.
Forward secrecy even if QC cracks RSA or ECC.

"the notification is of no use to me." Then ignore/killfile the notifications. But many others see benefit from advance notice and starting to crank up their patch machinery. Even if they end up not patching, they seem to find it worthwhile as "disaster prep."

This is wrong. We're not trying to protect against National-Scale Adversaries, who probably have all the traffic the want, anyway. immediate full disclosure means that any script kiddie or criminal gets access immediately. That would be bad.

Emilia from the OpenSSL team just published a good blog post that explains some of the "twists" of logjam, and also what OpenSSL is doing about it. It's here: http://openssl.org/blog/blog/2...

A friend's kid was watching the tracker. His network glitched and for a minute he got the [X] icon instead of the sleigh image. He started crying that Santa got blown up.

Someone sent me a copy:

I remember their daily message (msgs) had "Hello, world -- dmr" for the longest time. Also that Barry had very long discussions with NSFNet folks (Steven Wolffe?) about AUP, as the first commercial ISP.

Those other folks don't deserve to be in the same room as Dan Geer. See his RSA talk http://geer.tinho.net/geer.rsa... for example.

From their website: "DES and the International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA) are the two most commonly used symmetric techniques." Totally wrong. Doesn't make you feel good about them as a security company.

Ugh. Drop all that stuff. Who needs it? My gmail folder has 20 messages in it. Lighten your (psychic) load.
