I am pretty sure that I already know what the answer would be, but what
if some hypothetical individual were working on a freely-distributable
Linux ESP implementation that, say, included _no_ implementations but was
easily extensible? I hate to clutter the list with politico-crypto-flame
bait, but would this fall under the range of the "permissible"?
Cough, cough.....
Hypothetically, this individual would be best served if it included a
ESP-based mechanism using a rot-13 or XOR-based encryption scheme, it
only had an "internal, non-published" interface between the main body of
the code and the XOR encryption module.

P.S. What's in a name? Quite a lot, actually. A rose by any other
name may not smell as sweet!
