Tell me - were any of the Digg votes for that from anybody who had actually
done a code review? Or they just saw "2048 bit RSA" and got woodies?

(Personally, I wouldn't want to be using 2048 bit RSA for the actual
stream encryption - that's something that IDEA or similar is much better for.
RSA is good for exchanging the IVs for the session keys, and that's about
it. And anybody want to place bets that it has tons of interesting attacks
on key management?)
