I would stop worrying about them for starters. I've written up and published a summary of the architectural discussions as I understand them together with some of my thoughts on the security issues at http://www.cs.tcd.ie/~careilly/portia/ArchNotes. The network here has been a bit unstable over the last week or two so it may be a bit unreliable. (Something to do with ATM switches I believe. What a suprise.) It's only a draft that I knocked up over the last hour, so excuse the quality. I'll try and keep it up to date as the discussion progresses and I'll try to write up a comprehensible explanation of what I mean by a "layered access control system" (LAX) over the weekend. Apologies in advance if I've mis-interpreted any of the discussion. Colman
