Maybe I'm easily impressed, but I'm impressed.
:-) impressed by the paranoia / nerdiness?
People came to me with a problem. I found the Entropy Key; they are
about £30 each. Instead of saying, "yeah just ln -sf /dev/urandom
/dev/random" like everyone else, I decided to have a play.
If you ask a cryptographer I suspect they will still say urandom is
good enough, but, well, the option is there now.
I suppose I should have a poke around the bitfolk wiki
to see
what other gadgets and gee-gaws are available.
The usual problem with wikis: it's hard to organise it. :(
I must confess that the page was only created by me today based on
an announcement made over a year ago, before the wiki existed:
http://lists.bitfolk.com/lurker/message/20100607.133631.59c94486.en.html
The need to renumber it forced its creation as otherwise very few
people would know what I was on about.
Cheers,
Andy
