RE: German Key Usage

["Flanigan, Bill" <flanigab@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Folks,

	This is just the start of "our" key collection.  Not only do we 
have three (and counting) for PKIs, we have two (and counting?) for IPSec, 
one (and counting for TLS?), etc.  Whatever happened to the concept of just 
(gasp) two keys, one for Dsigs and the other for enciperment?  Even that's 
enough to choke the infrastructure.
	Comments?

Bill
