Re: RFC2409



I suppose you could call it a feature ... if you want a protocol
that uses C as a trusted relay.  C is trusted to start the
game, to relay the messages, and not to read them.  Later, I and
R can get together and verify that they were using the proper
shared key for their messages, and that is reason to believe
that C behaved properly.  So, if you want anonymous chess tournaments
with verifiable results, this is your protocol.  So let's change
C's name to T, the Tournament Director.  And I and R should be
F and S (who could have hardly been anonymous to each other).
