	Out of curiosity... is there any way to safely embed our encrypt/decrypt
	functions in that code without it becomming public? Otherwise I'm not
	sure how we'd be able to plug one of these in to the network...

The answer is still effectively no. There would have to be a standard
hardware configuration to freeze it. Or at least a fixed set of cores
for every usable FPGA, which at least in the beginning would require
releasing the crypto to a half dozen or better FPGA developers (most
of the FPGA RC5 user community).

Which is why this list is dead. The proprietary interests block open
access.
