What we're planning is a sample application that shows how hardware and sof= tware crypto accelerators can be used to accelerate a typical workload, whi= ch happens to be IPsec. We plan to provide an RFC next week which will give= further details on what's being proposed. We don't expect maintenance to b= e a problem, but we can discuss that further when the scope has been clarif= ied.
