Hi Richard,

I'm Joe Richey, and I work on Mike's team. We've been playing around
with a few design
ideas regarding a tool for managing filesystem encryption. After going
though some iterations
with Ted, we have a fairly good idea about where to head design wise,
and I'm working on a
design document for it. It's a bit preliminary at this point, but I
can share it if you want.

Our goal is to have a finished doc by end of Q4 and then get your and
Jaegeuk's feedback.

Thanks,
Joe
