I would like to do a paper on how the Clipper II proposal attempts to
address the criticisms of the Clipper proposal, and to what extent it
succeeds.  The specific criticisms I would like to focus on are:

	* The algorithm underlying Clipper is classified and
	  (allegedly) therefore untrustworthy.

	* The Clipper proposal does not guarantee individuals any
	  privacy against the government.

	* There are risks associated with any key escrow scheme in
	  that the escrowed keys could be compromised.  If key escrow
	  is involuntary, so are those risks.

	* Key escrow imposes difficult constraints on system design
	  and make it harder to develop applications using
	  cryptography.

	* The Clipper proposal looks suspiciously like a precursor to
	  banning most uses of unescrowed cryptography.

Since I will be looking for essentially any writings opposed to
Clipper, I will be using pretty much all of the material available on
Clipper and Clipper II in the course archives: the items culled from
the net, the panel discussion, EPIC's lawsuit, the materials on the
September 1995 NIST meeting, Diffie's article, and perhaps material
from the EFF archive on Clipper.
