Finally signed on to Henri Poole's excellent Affero service - check it out (and if you're glad I sent you, let me know).

Lots going on, and there's always so much more to do. I've been considering Kerberos using public key crypto for initial authorization for top-level ID brokers and SDSI/SPKI for managing local realms, but I'm still far from being an expert in these areas, and I feel I need to know so much more.

In between my research I've been getting out to play with Steven - we just took him to a baseball game (Giants won!) and he had a great time.
