[Liverpool] Fw: [ORG-discuss] Come see Bruce Schneier talk in London

[Tom Hall]

A little unfair in my view, the guys book on crypto is a set text at
lots of universities and his Twofish algorithm was a serious contender
for AES (we did a study of the candidates when I was at uni, great
module)

Suggest where good crypto guys are talking, I'll drive.
