It is also less secure. > Cryptgraphically the best know attack against truefish is as far as I know still http://www.schneier.com/paper-twofish-impossible.html I'm also not aware of any implementation problems on "some architectures". The only think I can argue against twofish is, that there are not so many cryptographical analysisis against it as agains Rijndael. Can you bring any paper, article or other resource that supports your claim? cheers Wolfgang _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
