comments wanted on gbde

[Steven M. Bellovin]

A "discussion" -- I'll be polite and call it that -- has erupted on 
some mailing lists about gbde -- geometry-based disk encryption.  With 
the author's consent, I'm soliciting opinions from this group about it:

I have my own opinions, which I know some of you have seen, but on this 
list I'll remain silent for now to see if any consensus develops.
