One of the reasons I most admire your tact and approach to opportunities
for solutions (aka: problems).

"Show me. If it works, then let's talk."

Case in point: BBN. Yeah, the IP stack that didn't stack up. Bill Joy is
famous for answering the question posed to him with, "It's simple. You
just read the specs and write the code" (paraphrased, of course).

I'm confident that Solderpunk found this about your character as an
important reason why he delgated AUTH to you for this part of the
project. You put your keyboard where everyone's discussions were and
wrote https://github.com/spc476/GLV-1.12556

It makes for a strong point of advocation when this happens, for pretty
much anything.

Kindest regards,
