 Next-Steps Monkeysphere Projects:
 ---------------------------------
 
-Handle unknown hosts in such a way that they're not always removed
-   from known_hosts file.  Ask user to lsign the host key?
+Detail advantages of monkeysphere: detail the race conditions in ssh,
+   and how the monkeysphere can help you reduce these threat vectors:
+   threat model reduction diagrams.
 
-Handle multiple multiple hostnames (multiple user IDs?) when
-   generating host keys with gen-key.
+Handle unverified monkeysphere hosts in such a way that they're not
+   always removed from known_hosts file.  Ask user to lsign the host
+   key?
 
-Make sure alternate ports are handled for known_hosts.
+Work out the details (and describe a full use case) for assigning a
+   REVOKER during monkeysphere-server gen_key -- how is this set?  How
+   do we export it so it's available when a second-party revocation is
+   needed?
+
+Actually enable server hostkey publication.
+
+Streamline host key generation, publication, verification.  See
+   doc/george/host-key-publication for what dkg went through on
+   2008-06-19
 
-Add environment variables sections to man pages.
+Ensure that authorized_user_ids are under as tight control as ssh
+   expects from authorized_keys: we don't want monkeysphere to be a
+   weak link in the filesystem.
+
+Consider the default permissions for
+   /var/lib/monkeysphere/authorized_keys/* (and indeed the whole
+   directory path leading up to that)
+
+Make sure alternate ports are handled for known_hosts.
