how imminent is the release?  i have an initial revision of the code,
on top of sascha's patches, to enable explicit management of
passphrase caching by the calling code.  that still might change as i
develop my code that uses it, though.  so i'm unsure whether i have
toto post those revisions immediately, so i can get them into the
release, or whether i have a few days to develop the other code and
resolve the changes i'd ideally like in the pgg code.

as for the copyright assignment, i have papers on file from a long
time ago, for allout and icomplete, but i believe it covers whatever i
want to contribute.  all the lines in the current patch were written
by sascha, anyway, my suggestions just motivated some of them.
