+Description: Basic key-management system with secure recovery features.
+ The primary purpose of the distorted.org.uk key management system is
+ to provide a secure way of recovering important cryptographic keys,
+ e.g., keys for decrypting backup volumes, in the event of a disaster.
+ . 
+ Because it was technically fairly easy, given this infrastructure, the
+ system also allows users to generate and use their own keys, without
+ revealing the actual key data, on the theory that, what a user program
+ doesn't know, it can't leak.
+ .
+ This system doesn't actually do very much cryptography itself.  Instead,
+ it uses other existing implementations, such as GnuPG, OpenSSL, and
+ Seccure.
