Again, you take on the mantle of net cop with allacrity.
If there really were net cops you would find yourself with tickets far more
than most posters. Another news rule is that you remain polite with people
and that if someone does something you do not like, you exhibit tolerance
of that. Furtehrmore, the newer the poster, the more tolerance you exhibit. But that
is a rule you do not like, so you ignore it. With your example, why should
anyone follow any rules at all, since your key rule seems to be that your
own personal preferences take precedent over anything else.

OK I will react.
First I read this group every day, but usually first the 'headers'
(subjects),
and if I think the subject is interesting _to_me_ I will follow it.
Because of this, you sometimes mis discussions about things.
I just checked with google (posting from that now) and could not find a
reference to that
paper here.

It is a bit obscure. I think that the reason you missed the first
discussion was that it was posted by Tom.


But even then I posted on topic.
I killfiled Tom long time ago, because of unpleasant remarks, all the
bugs in libtomcrypt
and the endless commercials for that library.
But now I was sort of disappointed the discussion was not about that
paper but again about Tom.

Sorry about that.

I think it is a cleaver thing they do, have some reservations, but have
not written any code to verify
their claims.
So, to me 'interesting paper', if it is beyond the understanding of
some (Tom) too bad for them.

No idea why he is reacting this way.

Self spouting egomaniac Tom advertising commercial found.

Well that is a little bit harsh. He is trying to point to the old thread
discussing this issue.
